Mount Morgan is a former mining town located on the Dee River, in central Queensland, about 40 km south of the city of Rockhampton, on the Burnett Highway. Mount Morgan is an interesting and charming place, with wooden houses, a pub and a gold mining history reaching back to 1882. The mine finally closed in 1981, having yielded a fortune in of gold during its productive years, and there is a 300 m deep acid-water filled mining pit next to the town. Some of the major attractions in the area are: # Historic Rail Complex and Mt Morgan Visitors Centre- The magnificent Mount Morgan railway station (built in 1898) which is a beautiful timber building that now operates as the visitors centre and is the departure point for rail tours. Hop on board the steam train service for a journey back in time. # Gold Mine Tours - You can book for a tour of the old mine site at the visitors centre # Mt Morgan Historical Museum # Courthouse and other Historic Buildings # Suspension Bridges and Swing Bridge - Located on the Dee River, downstream from the mine road, are several unusual suspension (swing) bridges that were built in the 1890s.
