ABOUT Injune Visitor Information Centre
Set your bearings for adventure! Tucked at the foot of the majestic Carnavon Range, 90-kilometres north of Roma on the Great Inland Way, the thriving township of Injune is the perfect base for adventurous travellers. Injune is a quaint country town full of intriguing history, spectacular views and inspiring natural landscapes.
Nestled in the Great Dividing Range, Injune is blessed with a climate that takes you to the depths of cold crispy winters to hot summers and perfect spring and autumn weather. Like most small towns west of the Great Dividing Range, the town was built on a natural water system, and the surrounding ranges give birth to five of the major river systems in South West Queensland and New South Wales. Mount Moffatt is part of these mountain ranges, and from here, the views of the surrounding land is nothing short of spectacular. Often sited as the second coldest place in Queensland, Mount Moffatt almost qualifies as ‘alpine’. Have a swim in the town’s modern swimming pool and stop at the stunning lookout across Arcadia Valley and explore its beauty.
While visiting Injune, pay a visit to the Information Centre. There is no better place to get all the information you need than at the Injune Visitor Information Centre, where you will be assisted by knowledgeable local volunteers.
