Rockhampton to Longreach drive: Emerald attractions
Emerald is unexpectedly quirky place. The Mosaic Pathway offers… well, a pathway made of mosaic tiling. The town is also home to the world’s biggest (replica) Van Gogh sunflower painting.
For natural beauty, chill out in the Emerald Botanic Gardens or beside Fairbairn Dam.
