The drive
Eidsvold - the self-styled beef capital of the Burnett - sits on the Burnett Highway south of Monto. It's a straightforward sealed run north to Monto through open grazing country. Confirm the exact distance and drive time with a mapping app before you set off.
Stops along the way
- Mulgildie and its Bunyip statue, about 10 km south of Monto.
- The Three Moon silos, just south of Monto on the highway.
Arriving in Monto
Roll into Monto for the art trail, a heritage main street and a meal and a bed at the Grand - then use the town as a base for a Cania Gorge day trip.
