The climb from the Lockyer Valley to the Darling Downs may be short, but it connects two of regional Queensland’s most important communities. The Gatton to Toowoomba route links the agricultural heart of the Lockyer Valley, including the University of Queensland Gatton campus, with a city known for its gardens, heritage architecture and role as the commercial centre of the Darling Downs.
Gatton is closely associated with agriculture, education and regional innovation. Home to the University of Queensland’s Gatton campus, the town plays a significant role in agricultural research and training, while the surrounding Lockyer Valley is recognised as one of Australia’s most productive farming regions.

Attractions such as Queens Park, the Cobb + Co Museum and the city’s famous Carnival of Flowers have helped make Toowoomba one of regional Queensland’s most visited destinations.
