Royal by name with all the style of an Outback Queensland town you’d expect!

The brightly painted ‘silo’ on Exhibition Ave in Biloela is a beacon for travellers; like a huge welcome sign, saying come on in. Built to showcase Australia’s rich primary industries at Brisbane’s World Expo held in 1988, the silo is also the centre piece of Queensland Heritage Park. Embracing the Australian spirit, the building throws open the doors to the nation’s pioneering history, right through to modern times, with a remarkable collection of photographs and artefacts. Inside, a circular display showcases snapshots of the past – canvas tents of the roustabout, a blacksmith shop, farmer’s fields and plough, dairy, and typical back yard with mum hanging out the washing. Setting the scene, giant murals are a backdrop to each of the exhibits, creating a complete picture of the times. Outside, the first Presbyterian Church (circa 1930’s) and old Railway Station (1920’s) have more history on show and a unique display of vintage machinery is scattered throughout the grounds. The spacious surroundings also offer travellers a spot to put up camp with plenty of powered and unpowered sites available. #outbackqueensland #biloela #heritagepark #sandstonewonders #thisisqueensland #seeaustralia

Hell Hole Gorge is definitely not true to it's name! With its steep rocky banks and cascades that run after heavy rainfall, is the largest of several rock pools and seasonal waterholes that provide welcome relief in a harsh, arid landscape. Camping is allowed near Powell Creek, 580m from Hell Hole Waterhole. There are no visitor facilities - this park is suited to nature-lovers who want to camp, hike, explore, birdwatch, relax and photograph nature in a remote area. Check @qldparks website for further camping information and permits. Hell Hole Gorge National Park is approximately 180km north-west of Quilpie via Adavale. Travelling from Adavale to the gorge is mainly via unsealed roads that travel through privately-operated cattle stations; access and road side camping off or along these main roads is prohibited. Take care to avoid stock on unfenced roads and leave gates as you find them. This national park is accessible by four-wheel-drives and off-road camper trailers only. Hell Hole Gorge is definitely one to add to your ‘must do’ list for your next Outback Queensland adventure.
