Warwick guidebook
Sightseeing
Take a leisurely stroll through changing forests to the top, and then the base, of spectacular Queen Mary Falls. Stop in at Killarney on the way.
From the Queen Mary Falls picnic area, head along a fragrant eucalypt-topped ridgeline to the lush, rainforested gorge.
At the lookout, watch Spring Creek plunge 40 metres over the falls to the valley floor. Marvel at the rainbows created by the waterfall’s sheer mist, and watch as the creek continues its twisting journey along the valley, to join the Condamine River’s upper reaches.
Continue along the track to the valley floor and cool off in the waterfall’s misty spray—perfect on a hot summer's day.
Their Park Rangers reckon walking the circuit in a clockwise direction is easier on the legs!
This park is part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Area, famed for its ongoing geological processes, evolutionary history, and diversity (especially of rare, threatened and endemic species).

Glengallan Homestead is a heritage-listed homestead on the New England Highway, Glengallan, Southern Downs Region, Queensland, Australia. It was built from 1864 to 1904. It is also known as Glengallan Head Station. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992 and is open to the public.
Rescued from ruin, Glengallan Homestead is a time warp experience.
Glengallan is not just any old country mansion. Uninhabited for more than half its lifetime, it remains frozen in time.The 1867 two-storey sandstone mansion is an iconic heritage place, a rare example of a substantial 19th century country house in Queensland.
Glengallan today is a tribute not only to its visionary builder and to 19th Century craftsmen, but also to the 21st Century team that brought it back to life with a delicately balanced restoration that enables the visitor to experience the best and worst of its times.
Not only it boasts beautiful gardens and landscape, it takes you back to a time where the land was everything that mattered and life was hard but enjoyable.
There is a great cafe "Eliza's at Glengallan" where you can enjoy traditional scones, homemade cakes, damper and pikelets, sandwiches and light meals.
