Coal mining, cattle farming, and country living await in the Shire of Banana.
Famous for its coal mining industry and cattle stations, Moura is the place to get a taste of rural Queensland. Uncover the region’s mining heritage at the Moura Miners’ Memorial and the Moura Coal & Country Museum, then head down to the Dawson River to fish, boat, or kayak during your Moura camping trip. Several state parks and forests also surround the town, making it easy to get back to nature and explore little-known bushwalking trails. Seek out a remote camping spot in the Expedition State Forest, or hike to rugged gorges and waterfalls in Kroombit Tops National Park, where you can take your pick of two bush campgrounds. Campers can also enjoy an authentic country camping experience in Moura, whether going glamping at a local farmstay, pitching your tent by the riverside, or checking into the main Moura caravan park, which has spacious powered sites and a dump point.
