Western Australia reckons it has it all over the wise-men from the East when it comes to wildflower time. Wrong ! In the Eukey district of the Southern Downs, come wildflower time and the west gets a bit of a going over. Given the right seasonal additives and these massive paddocks really do put on a show. The locals will tell you that Eukey has some of the highest farmland in Queensland. They emphasise that it's farmland that they are talking about.

It is possible to access the well known Girraween National Park via a back road from Eukey. Check the maps and talk with a local to get the right info, as parts are gravel and that requires new skills for those who may be more used to driving in the city.

Oh ! .. And if there is any snow about during the winter months ten-to-one it will be falling in and around Eukey.
