Driving inland from the coast you arrive at Collinsville, The Heart of the Outback, a small town that makes up for its size with its huge country welcome!

Built on mining, the town celebrates this with its Coalface Experience Museum and Pit Pony Experience, a fascinating look at life underground for the many miners who have worked there their whole lives.

In June, Collinsville comes alive as it plays host to the Bowen River Rodeo and Camp Draft. An authentic Aussie rodeo!

For those that enjoy a hit of gold in some extraordinary place, Collinsville has what might be the driest golf courses in Australia! The region also features a stunning hinterland, a large dam for fishing and watersports and excellent outback four-wheel driving.

Collinsville is a friendly country town known for its historic mining attractions and traditional warm Queensland hospitality.
