ROCKHAMPTON
Calling Code: +61 (0)7
With six bull statues representing the main breeds of the
area, there is no doubting to the status of Rockhampton as
Australia’s Beef Capital. Naturally Rockhampton offers more
than beef. Located on the Tropic of Capricorn, the city is
surrounded by coastal and rural landscapes. With its
historical architecture and opportunities for both a relaxed,
as well as active stay, Rockhampton is a great place to visit.
Gateway to the Capricorn Coast and the
Queensland Outback, Rockhampton, is located on the
Tropic of Capricorn. Founded in 1853,
Rockhampton’s historical architecture
shows off the city’s exciting history. Quay
Street facing the Fitzroy River has a
historic streetscape that is unique in
Australia.
Rising out of Rockhampton’s north-eastern
suburbs, Mt Archer National Park provides
magnificent views of the city, and
showcases a spectacular range of native
Australian flora and fauna. Frazer Park at
the summit of Mt Archer is approximately
604 meters above sea level.
