Baralaba was for many years the railhead for the Dawson Valley coalfields. Today, saw-milling is the lifeblood of the town, which is also the commercial hub for surrounding farmers and graziers. The broad expanses on the local reaches of the Dawson are magnets for sailboaters, water skiers and fisherfolk. Built in 1976, the Neville Hewitt Weir attracts anglers, boaties and water-skiers. The Woorabinda, the self-sustaining Aboriginal settlement 33km north-west in the foothills of the Blackdown Tableland produces and sells a wide range of traditional art and craftwork.
The
Baralba Historic Village preserves the region’s important links with
past, with a special focus on those days when coal was king in this corner
of central Queensland. Hikers are rewarded with spectacular views of the district
from the summit of Mt Ramsay, about 14km out of town.
