The Lockyer Valley, less than an hour from Brisbane, is a beautiful region of Queensland. An area popular for farming and agriculture, it has a blend of town and country with restaurants, art galleries, horse riding and bushwalking. Perfect for a weekend away from the city, here’s what you can get up with our top 5 things to do.
Horse Riding
From one-hour trail rides to a 5-day Jillaroo/Jackaroo experience, Fordsdale Famstay provide horse riding adventures in the Lockyer Valley. See an amazing array of wildlife including wallabies, kangaroos, goannas and plenty of birds, and enjoy morning, lunch and afternoon tea when you book the All-Day Trail Ride. You can also spend a night in the bush with a total of six hours of riding, a country-style cooked breakfast and a BBQ dinner around the campfire.

Water Sports
Lake Dyer in the Lockyer Valley provides a number of water sports to get to grips to. Go fishing, canoeing, ride a motorised boat, or grab hold of a jet ski on this picturesque lake. Picnicking is available on shaded tables with free BBQs to use. Gates open from 6am – 6pm, so you can relax with friends all day.
Hot Air Balloon Rides
From the water to the skies, hot air balloon flights are a great way to see the full breath taking beauty of the Lockyer Valley. View the old heritage buildings in the city of Ipswich, take in the meandering Brisbane River, and look out to the backdrop of Mount Tamborine and Flinders Peak with a bird’s eye view.
Queensland Transport Museum
Located inside the Lockyer Valley Cultural Centre, discover the magnificent display of 24 different forms of transport and over 200 models of western transport. A highlight is the History of Western Maranoa Transport, a main feature in the museum with interactive displays. With changing displays and special vehicles on loan from owners, what you see one day may be very different from the next.
Winery Tour
Boutique family-owned boutique winery, Preston Peak Winery, welcomes 20,000 visitors to the cellar door every year. Producing red, white and sparkling wines since 1994, you can enjoy high quality wine and free tastings events in a stunning location with views to match.
