Tolga Accommodation, Hotels, Tours & Information

Tolga

Within a long stone's throw, in fact, it is 13.7 kilometres from its biggest neighbour, Atherton, along the tree shaded Kennedy Highway, Tolga presents a quaint little town that has good examples of early Queensland architecture. These include the Tolga butcher shop and newsagency building. A centre strip in the main street features a towering fig tree and heritage and timber display consisting of seven carved poles, much like totem poles. These showcase, in creative carving, aspects of the Tableland's rich heritage including Aboriginal culture, animals, plants and threats to the rainforest habitat. With its range of accommodation from caravan parks to a five-star retreat, Tolga could be your town to use as a base to explore the numerous attractions of the Atherton Tableland.
