Hampton, QLD Australia
| Address | Hampton
Queensland, Australia |
Situated at the top of the escarpment, Hampton is one of the delightful small hamlets located along the New England Highway between Toowoomba and Crows Nest.
Take a break, a coffee and a lungful of fresh mountain air before exploring the antique shop and gift stores. Fresh local produce, from the many farms located around the district, is available for sale at the General Store.
Visit the Hampton Information Centre, which is located at the intersection where visitors can choose to venture along the scenic drive to Ravensbourne National Park and possibly also on towards Esk. The centre also has a range of local produce on display and for sale.
Ravensbourne National Park features short bushwalking tracks, a scenic lookout and picnic facilities. Ravensbourne National Park is for day-use visitors only.
Each year in May the park surrounding the Visitor Information Centre plays host to the Hampton High Country Food and Art Festival. The festival gives local producers from all over the Darling Downs a chance to showcase their produce.
