RouteXpert Review This route takes you to Chinchilla, which is a town in the Western Downs region. At the 2016 census, Chinchilla had a population of 6,612. The city (about 300 kilometers west of northwest Brisbane) was founded in 1877. As the railroad ran west from Toowoomba and Dalby across the Darling Downs, a temporary construction camp was established on the banks of Charley's Creek that grew into this town. Agriculture is the mainstay of the community, with beef, pork, wool production and horticulture production. Known as the 'Melon Capital of Australia', Chinchilla hosts a melon festival every two years in February - the next one being held in 2021.
You leave Brisbane via the highway, to leave it after about 40 KM to stop at the supermarket to do some shopping, so that you have something to eat and drink with you on the way. Via a beautiful through road and an equally beautiful "green" environment, you arrive in the town of Fernvale. This is a small town and you can stop by the Subway for a coffee. Soon after coffee you will pass Lake Wivenhoe, this dam is the largest water storage in South East Queensland and is the main water supply for Brisbane and the greater Ipswich area. Wivenhoe Dam was built on the Brisbane River. It was designed by the Water Resources Commission and built in 1984. The dam was built with the dual purpose of providing a safe and reliable water supply for the region and limiting flooding. Wivenhoe Dam has a total storage capacity of 3,132 million megaliths.
Further in the town of Kilcoy, after about 180 KM, there is a possibility to refuel. You can have lunch in the town of Maleny at "Brouhaha Brewery and Restaurant", you are almost halfway through the route. After lunch you go to "Gympie". Originally, this area was intended for grazing livestock. Until James Nash discovered gold in the area in 1867. At the time, Queensland was in economic depression and this discovery saved it from destruction. The search for gold still plays a role in the economy of Gympie, besides agriculture (with especially milk production), labor and tourism are important sources of income. Gympie's name comes from the Aboriginal name for a tree (the Gympie gympie tree). The tree has large round leaves that have the same properties as those of nettles. The translation for Gympie is roughly “devil”.
The main attractions of Gympie are:
1. “The Valley Rattler” is a steam train that allows you to view the landscape around Gympie. It starts on the south side of Gympie, then continues through the Mary Valley where it follows the Mary River. This ride is a journey across the valley starting at the old Gympie train station. This station is the original station of the track that ran through Gympie during the gold rush of 1900.
2. Pineapples, macadamia nuts and other crops grow on the hilly landscape around Gympie. In addition, it is a beautiful landscape through the vast forests. The villages Dagun, Amamoor, Kandanga and Imbil are also located in this valley.
3. Mary Street is the center, here is the post office, all kinds of bars, cafes, banks and shops. It has real village appearance.
4. Every year a large music event is organized in Gympie, attracting thousands of fans and musicians.
After leaving Gympie, you will drive through a beautiful varied environment, then through forests, then past meadows and you will pass through the following towns: Kilkivan, Murgon (here you also have the option to refuel), Wondai & Kingaroy in Chinchilla at the end point.
This 4-star rated route goes the first stretch over the highway and then through roads through nature reserves and some nice places where you can stop for a snack or refuel.
General info:
Queensland (literally translated: Queensland) is a state in northeastern Australia. Queensland is the second largest in area and Australia's third largest state in terms of population. The state was named after Queen Victoria, the monarch at the time of the settlement of the former colony. The capital and largest city of Queensland is Brisbane, located in the southeast of the state. The northern portion of the state, separated by the Tropic of Capricorn, is tropical. The south is subtropical. Queensland was originally a British crown colony that emerged in 1859 after secession from New South Wales. The city of Brisbane originally started out as the Moreton Bay penal colony, which held convicts who again committed errors while serving their sentences in New South Wales.
Brisbane is located about 100 kilometers north of the border between Queensland and New South Wales. Southeast Queensland also has two larger population centers: the Gold Coast south of Brisbane, and the Sunshine Coast north of Brisbane. Along the approx. 2000 km long coast (from south to north) are the following cities: Coolangatta - Gold Coast - Brisbane - Sunshine Coast - Gympie - Maryborough - Hervey Bay - Bundaberg - Gladstone - Rockhampton - Mackay - Townsville - Cairns. The following cities are inland (counterclockwise): Warwick - Toowoomba - Roma - Charters Towers - Mount Isa. The world's largest city by surface, Mount Isa is located in northwestern Queensland. The area of the city is 42,904 km² (approximately the area of the Netherlands!), But the city has a population of approximately 20,000 (2003).
The state is home to five World Heritage Sites: Australian Mammal Fossil Sites (Riversleigh / Naracoorte),
Gondwana rainforests, Fraser Island, The Great Barrier Reef and the Tropical wetlands of Queensland.
Queensland can be roughly divided into three parts:
1.The eastern coastal strip, dominated by the Great Australian Separation Mountains. From north to south there are also the Darling Downs, the Bunya Mountains, the Carnarvon Gorge, the Whitsunday Islands, Hinchinbrook Island and the Atherton Tableland. Off the coast, north of Fraser Island, the Great Barrier Reef begins.
2.The tropical Cape York Peninsula in the north. To the north of this is the Straits Torres with the Straits Torres Islands and to the east most of the Great Barrier Reef.
3 Most of the dry interior, called the Queensland outback, with the Channel Country in the southwest.

About this region
Queensland (locally KWEENZ-land) is a state situated in northeastern Australia, and is the second-largest and third-most populous Australian state. It is bordered by the Northern Territory, South Australia, and New South Wales to the west, south-west and south respectively. To the east, Queensland is bordered by the Coral Sea and the Pacific Ocean. To its north is the Torres Strait, separating the Australian mainland from Papua New Guinea. With an area of 1,852,642 square kilometres (715,309 sq mi), Queensland is the world's sixth-largest sub-national entity, and is larger than all but 15 countries. Due to its size, Queensland's geographical features and climates are diverse, including tropical rainforests, rivers, coral reefs, mountain ranges and sandy beaches in its tropical and sub-tropical coastal regions, as well as deserts and savanna in the semi-arid and desert climatic regions of its interior.
Queensland has a population of over 5.2 million, concentrated along the coast and particularly in South East Queensland. The capital and largest city in the state is Brisbane, Australia's third-largest city. Ten of Australia's thirty largest cities are located in Queensland, with the largest outside Brisbane being the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast, Townsville, Cairns and Toowoomba. A high proportion of the state's population is multicultural, with 28.9% of inhabitants being immigrants.Queensland was first inhabited by Aboriginal Australians and Torres Strait Islanders. Dutch navigator Willem Janszoon, the first European to land in Australia, explored the west coast of the Cape York Peninsula in 1606. In 1770, James Cook claimed the east coast of Australia for the Kingdom of Great Britain. In 1788, Arthur Phillip founded the colony of New South Wales, which included all of what is now Queensland. Queensland was explored in subsequent decades, and the Moreton Bay Penal Settlement was established at Brisbane in 1824 by John Oxley. Queensland was separated from New South Wales on 6 June 1859 (now commemorated as Queensland Day), thereby establishing Queensland as a self-governing Crown colony with responsible government, named in honour of Queen Victoria. Queensland was among the six colonies which became the founding states of Australia with Federation on 1 January 1901. Since the Bjelke-Petersen era of the late 20th century, Queensland has received a high level of internal migration from the other states and territories of Australia and remains a popular destination for interstate migration.
Queensland has the third-largest economy among Australian states, with strengths in mining, agriculture, transportation, international education, insurance and banking. Nicknamed the Sunshine State for its tropical and sub-tropical climates, Great Barrier Reef and numerous beaches, tourism is also important to the state's economy.

Toll roads:
Toll roads are ideal for getting around or through a huge city like Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane quickly and very easy to use. There are no toll booths, so it is not possible to pay on site. The toll must be paid by yourself by telephone and credit card within three days after using the road or tunnel. When you pick up the rental motorcycle, you will receive all the information about this. It's a simple system but it requires action from yourself to avoid fines.
Motorbike traffic rules:
Motorcycling rules in Australia vary by state or territory. Inquire about the regulations on site.
Helmet:
Wearing a helmet is mandatory for driver and passenger. The helmet must comply with the Australian Standard (AS/NZS1698) or the European Standard (UNECE 22.05), which is indicated on a decal or label inside the helmet. In some states, such as New South Wales and Victoria, a helmet may no longer meet the standard if a small camera is mounted on it, if speakers (Bluetooth) are built in, or if the helmet has a tinted visor.
Lighting: Dipped beam is not mandatory during the day, but is recommended.
Passengers:
The carriage of 1 passenger is allowed. Children under 8 years of age are not allowed to be transported on the motorbike.

Driving side by side:
Two motorcycles may ride side by side, provided that their mutual distance does not exceed 1.5 m.
traffic jams:
In Australia it is allowed to slalom between stationary or slow-moving cars in a traffic jam (lane filtering) provided a maximum speed of 30 km/h is maintained and other traffic is not endangered.
gas stations:
In Australia, a gas station is often referred to as servo (derived from service station). In the outback, a gas station is often called a road house. Pay attention; The number of filling stations is very limited, especially along the southern main route and the north-south connections. Keep this in mind and take enough spare fuel with you. For example, use the Fuel Map Australia app (fuelmap.com.au) to search for nearby gas stations and see current fuel prices.
Opening hours:
Gas stations are usually open at least from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. or 8 p.m. Many gas stations in larger towns and along highways offer 24-hour service or have gas dispensers. When planning longer trips, keep in mind that outside the major towns and along minor roads, gas stations are not open at night or in the morning, and sometimes on Sundays.
Pay:
Cash can be paid at petrol stations. Credit cards are accepted at most gas stations.
Tank machines:
Major credit cards are usually accepted at fuel dispensers (pay-at-the-pump), but often require a PIN to be used.
Reserve fuel:
Because the distances between places in Australia are long and gas stations in the outback may not always have sufficient fuel in stock, it is recommended that you always carry a spare tank of fuel. It is prohibited to carry fuel in a reserve tank on ferries.
