Tingoora...rich history Tingoora - Aboriginal for 'wattle tree' - is located 22 kilometres north of Kingaroy on the Bunya Highway. The social hub of this small but vital community is the local hotel, which was reportedly the first public building in town, established in 1900. Tingoora was originally settled for the rich agricultural land which surrounds it, and soon the bustling railway station was the centre of activities in the town as the lush crops were transported around the district. Turn off at Tingoora for an alternate route to the fishing and camping delights at Lake Boondooma. |
