strategically located on the

How do
you get there?
Regular
domestic air flights of
approximately
one hour are available from Brisbane to both Bundaberg
and Gladstone followed by a 90 min drive by
car.
The standard rail or the Tilt Train
from Brisbane
will stop at Miriam Vale by arrangement and a number of coach services
make regular scheduled stops daily at Miriam Vale.
Traveling by car due north from Brisbane along the Bruce hwy for 6 hrs
to Miriam Vale, or divert through Bundaberg
like the majority do.
Either way it is an easy day's drive.
Unfortunately there is no
scheduled maritime service
to the area as yet.
