The Central Region of the Atherton Tablelands has many towns and Lakes to explore.
The country is shaped by volcanic activity, with rolling green hills, extinct volcanoes and craters.
The bustling town of Atherton has many facilities including accommodation, eateries and shopping. Stop by at the Visitor Information Centre at the end of Main Street to get some information on what to do in the area.
To the north of Atherton is the little town of Tolga, and to the north east you can explore Lake Tinaroo.
To the east of Atherton is the historic Village of Yungaburra. Yungaburra is also the first town you come to if you start your journey from the Gillies Range. Visit Yungaburra for its great range of boutique style accommodation, pretty streets and heritage buildings. Near Yungaburra are the twin crater lakes of Lake Barrine and Lake Eacham, surrounded by World Heritage Rainforest.
At Malanda you can find out about the geological history of the Tablelands at the Visitor and Environmental Centre at Malanda Falls.
