Four Wheel Driving at Mount Morgan

Date Time
Four Wheel Driving at Mount Morgan
Rockhampton Regional Council has today released a statement setting out the facts around the situation regarding Four Wheel Driving at the Mount Morgan No 7 Dam.
Acting Mayor Neil Fisher said it was important that a number of mistruths being perpetuated by some in the community were addressed.
“At the outset, let me say that Council is well aware of the disappointment and concern from our four wheel drive community that signs have been put up saying no vehicles allowed,” Cr Fisher said.
“The fact of the matter is that recreational vehicles have never been allowed up there. The land is State Land classed as “Recreation” and Council is the trustee. Using a motor vehicle there is illegal unless approved by the Department of Resources under Section 52 of the Land Act. Council’s Local Laws also prohibit it.

'Hemsworth effect' behind Australian tourism boom

The Hollywood halo effect of having the Hemsworths in our big Aussie backyard has done wonders for some of the nation's top travel destinations.
Since leaving the rat-race lifestyle of Los Angeles behind in favour of a chilled coastal existence in the bucolic NSW town of Byron Bay, Hemsworth and his Spanish wife Elsa Pataky have not only become a pin up couple for a laid back lifestyle, but also played host to some of the biggest names in Hollywood.
Now, Lord Howe Island has become one of Tourism Australia's top 10 most viewed Instagram images for 2020 after Hemsworth took his family there.
