Ravenswood, QLD
Around 130 kilometres south-west of Townsville lies the town of Ravenswood. The old gold mining settlement, tucked away amongst the rolling hills, is a living tribute to the history and heritage of western Queensland. Mullock heaps, tall chimneys, poppet heads and discarded mine machinery pepper the countryside, reminiscent of the town’s century-old glory days. Take the time to stop and poke around because there’s more to this historic town of Ravenswood than first impressions might suggest.
