About Mount Morgan

Mount Morgan is one of a handful of genuinely fascinating mining towns. It is a true gem. A remarkably well preserved historic town full of remarkable timber buildings. There is something wonderfully quirky and original about the town. Getting the best of both worlds, Mount Morgan residents (mostly retirees from Rockhampton who enjoy a country town lifestyle) enjoy the comforts of a small semi-rural area; with Rockhampton city just thirty minutes drive and Yeppoon’s beaches an hour drive away. The area offers shopping opportunities, sporting and recreational facilities, hotels, cafes and much more.

Close-by attractions include;

• Rockhampton
• Yeppoon
• Great Keppel Island
