A Photographic Guide to Queensland’s Hidden Gems Â
Finding your next escape...
Explore the red dust of Outback Queensland. Venture beyond the beaten track to discover the most spectacular hidden gems of this great Sunshine State. Discover the world’s oldest culture and get lost in the magic of indigenous heritage and history. Settle in with nature, soak up the outback vibe, and slow down the pace of life. Out here, sunsets are majestic and almost ethereal. Spend your days exploring hidden treasures and spotting pink galahs, and nights stargazing at more stars than you could have imagined while toasting marshmallows over a communal firepit. Outback Queensland invites you to find yourself and lose yourself at once.
There’s so much to discover here. Indulge in one of the many mouth-watering traditional bakeries across the state. A highlight will be learning about the dinosaurs at Age of Dinosaurs that roamed the land millions of years ago. Dreamtime Serpent is an enormous art piece embedded into the Dreamtime Serpent rock, an indigenous artwork crafted from rocks and dirt, this is a memorable and must-see piece if you’re travelling through Outback Queensland. Drive along vibrant red sand dunes in Welford National Park and experience a day trip you’ll never forget.
Discover Cobbold Gorge with its extraordinary rock formation that towers above you against a blue sky. Porcupine Gorge is also a breathtaking visit. Stay on a real cattle station like Gilberton Outback Retreat to immerse yourself in outback life. There are a variety of tours and experiences available across Outback Queensland, including gold fossicking, nature walks, kayaking, standup paddleboarding, swimming, fishing, 4WD safaris, cultural tours, or paddle boating.
