Dalby is an easy 85 kilometres west of Toowoomba along the Warrego Way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dalby &#8211; a charming country town<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To get the best from this charming country town, take your time to talk to locals and delve into the history and stories that give it a character all its own. Hit the Heritage Trail to explore on foot some of Dalby\u2019s historic buildings. Start at St Joseph\u2019s Catholic Church, built in 1921, and discover the old police station dating from the mid-1860s; the Art Centre, which was once the Bath House; and Mary\u2019s Commercial Hotel (1885) \u2013 one of the oldest and most legendary pubs on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westerndownsqueensland.com.au\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"the Western Downs (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">the Western Downs<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explore Pioneer Park Museum<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can delve further into the local history at Pioneer Park Museum. Exhibits include working farm machinery from the late 1800s and early 1900s, early fashions and household memorabilia and an extensive collection of minerals, rocks and fossils. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of notable interest is the handwritten letter by Ned Kelly asking authorities to allow his mother to visit him in prison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Myall Creek Parklands Walkway is popular with bird watchers and it\u2019s also signed with plaques detailing places of historical significance. For a great picnic spot with a children\u2019s adventure playground, head to Thomas Jack Park on the edge of town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dalby Sale Yards<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s probably no place better for local flavour than the vibrant atmosphere of Dalby Regional Sale Yards each Wednesday. It\u2019s among the largest one-day cattle sales centres in Queensland with the action getting underway at 7.30am.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/parks.des.qld.gov.au\/parks\/bunya-mountains\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"The Bunya Mountains (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">The Bunya Mountains<\/a><\/strong> are easily explored from Dalby. Another easy excursion is Lake Broadwater Conservation Park \u2013 which protects the only natural lake on the Darling Downs and the surrounding cypress and brigalow. You can go swimming, boating and water skiing or picnic under river red gums, relax and enjoy the wildlife and wildflowers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Events to travel for include the Dalby Show in April; Dalby Picnic Races in May; the Delicious and DeLIGHTful Festival in August; and Australia\u2019s largest Stock Horse Sale and Campdraft on the first week of December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-background has-fixed-layout\" style=\"background-color:#e7f5fe\"><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/listing\/dalby-airstrip-queensland\/\" class=\"ek-link\">Nearest Airport<\/a><\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/listing\/attractions-in-dalby\/\" class=\"ek-link\">Attractions<\/a><\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/listing\/dining-in-dalby\/\" class=\"ek-link\">Dining<\/a><\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/listing\/accommodation-in-dalby\/\" class=\"ek-link\">Accommodation<\/a><\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-background has-fixed-layout\" style=\"background-color:#e7f5fe\"><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong><a href=\"\/Airstrips-around-Australia\/\" class=\"ek-link\">Airstrips around Australia<\/a><\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong><a href=\"\/Farm-and-Station-Stays\/\" class=\"ek-link\">Farm and Station Stays<\/a><\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong><a href=\"\/Towns-near-Airstrips\/\" class=\"ek-link\">Towns near Airstrips<\/a><\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1890,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","listing-category":[119],"list-tags":[],"location":[116],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v14.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Dalby Queensland - A Historic Town | Country Airstrips Australia<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Dalby in Queensland is a charming country town with a history and stories that give it a character all its own.
