Description

Travelling inland and south from Mackay, the small mining town of Middlemount has all the facilities of a well-maintained country town. These include a shopping centre, swimming pool, golf course, hotel, cafe, sports facilities, a community school and well maintained parks and gardens including family-friendly playgrounds. It is only a stones' throw to majestic Bundoora Dam, which is great for water skiing and swimming.

It is nicknamed the "Giant Peanut" by some locals due to its peanut-shaped road layout. Middlemount is one and a half hours drive from Emerald, three hours from Rockhampton and three hours from Mackay.

It's a great place to stop and enjoy a picnic in the park on your journey.
