Wildflower Tour in the Western Downs
Tour information
The Western Downs has some special places where you can experience the natural wonder of native plants and wildflowers in bloom, particularly following the first Spring rains in September. Why not venture off the highway and immerse yourself in the true heart of the Western Downs.
For your safety, we recommend a high-clearance vehicle, SUV, all-wheel and four-wheel vehicles, as you will be travelling on unsealed and dirt roads through State Forestry.
Self-drive (visit the Visitor Information Centre for more info or download the Western Downs app).
