It’s on a major junction of the Scenic Rim Way, which cuts east to west through the region, making it a great base for exploring this spectacular corner of the state. Check out High Street, the main shopping strip in Boonah, before exploring the back streets for classic examples of Queenslander houses — raised timber homes with deep wrap-around verandahs and tin roofs.

From Boonah you’ll find heavily wooded mountains, lakes, creeks, and cute villages in every direction. The Scenic Rim is best known as a bushwalking destination, with hikes in the region’s six national parks ranging from long treks through rugged bushland and UNESCO World Heritage-listed rainforest to the wheelchair-friendly Centenary track in Lamington National Park. Rock-climbing is big here, too, as are fishing and water sports in the nearby lakes. If you’re not feeling particularly active, you can tour the mountain roads by car.
