Gympie is known as "Queensland's Golden City" following Queensland's first gold rush in 1867. Today Gympie is the major provincial city of the Cooloola region and serves a population of 60 000. Gympie is located on the Mary River, 160 kilometres north of Brisbane via the Bruce Highway. As the heritage and cultural centre of the Cooloola Region, Gympie boasts a tradition that few areas in Queensland can offer. A city of 16,000 people, Gympie offers the warm hospitality of a country town with all the modern conveniences.
Gympie is the gateway to the Cooloola Region, featuring Cooloola Coast, Cooloola National Park and Fraser Island as well as the Mary Valley with State Forest Parks, Lake Borumba and the rural Kilkivan Shire. Major annual events include the Gympie Show in May, the National Country Music Muster in August, the Goldrush Festival in October, Cooloola Seafood and Leisure Festival in June, Kilkivan Great Horse Ride in April and the Rainbow Beach Fishing Classic in July.
Major industries include food and timber processing, retail and service industries, fruit and vegetable production.Photos
