Mount Perry suburb profile

Mount Perry is a small historic mining town in the Burnett region of central Queensland, set on the slopes of the mountain that gives it its name. Its main street and surrounding blocks display timber and brick buildings from the mining era and the area's copper history is evident in heritage sites such as the Boolboonda Tunnel. The surrounding landscape is rolling grazing country and eucalypt-clad ridges, appealing to hobby farmers, retirees and anyone seeking a quieter rural pace. Local life centres on a pub, a general store and a museum run by volunteers, while regional roads connect residents to larger service centres.
