Inside Nebo Museum

Nebo to Dysart

Mackay, Queensland

The heritage listed pub built in 1862 is the ideal place to stop for lunch, to get a taste of rural Australian hospitality and some good Aussie food! Overlooking Nebo Creek, it exudes as much character today as it did more than 100 years ago. With a strong indigenous cultural heritage, as well as an interesting European settler background, the Nebo museum is well worth a look for an insight into the changing diversity of this country town. Rest overnight in the heritage listed pub to experience true Australian hospitality. The next morning drive back to Nebo and continue your drive along the Peak Downs Highway, before turning left towards the mining town of Dysart. Drive past the large open cut mine, Peak Downs, where at one point the mine is located on either side of the road. From the roadside you can catch a glimpse of large mining machinery, such as drag lines, in operation.
