|
| THE
CONONDALES? WHERE'S THAT? |
| |
On
maps of South East Queensland, there's a major green block
that tantalises those with a sense for the natural. It extends
from Bellthorpe, just north of Woodford, upward through the
hinterland behind the Sunshine Coast to west of Gympie. A
large part of this area is the Conondale Range.
|
|
The
nearest facilities are at Kenilworth, an attractive small
hinterland town with a history of dairying and timber-getting.
An excellent historical museum graphically documents this
past while a glance down the main street, particularly at
weekends suggests substantial changes. |

The
town and it's surrounds provide all the regular services to
make your stay comfortable, including post office, newsagent,
doctor/chemist, baker, butcher, foodstores and pub. In addition,
there are cafes, restaurants, and numerous galleries and craft
outlets to explore. There are many options for accomodation,
from rustic camping, to comfortable B&B. |

More
detailed information on the Conondale Ranges and surrounding
area, and accounts by respected local historians, is available
in 'Walking
On The Wilder Side' - the latest publication by the Conondale
Range Committee. |
