Collinsville - QLD

Located a scenic drive 85km west from Bowen, travelling through orchards and farmland to grazing cattle country, at the foothills of the Clarke Range. Far enough away from the tourist hubs to be a country retreat, the close-knit community always offers a friendly and warm welcome to its many visitors.Features of the region include stunning hinterland, beautiful creeks and camping spots, a large dam for fishing and watersports and excellent outback four-wheel-driving. Journey a short distance to discover a unique part of outback heritage at the Bowen River Hotel, reputedly frequented not only by visitors and locals, but by ghosts as well!
