Living in West Moreton region
West Moreton boasts spectacular landscapes, stunning national parks, rich farming and agricultural history, and a laid back atmosphere.
Our region is home to some spectacular natural attractions. Throughout the Scenic Rim and Lockyer Valley you will find the ancient world heritage-listed Gondwana rainforests, sweeping valleys, epic mountain ranges, and stunning lakes.
The heritage city of Ipswich is brimming with art galleries, eclectic cafes, gardens and parks. You can spend sunny afternoons wandering through the laneways to find craft breweries and hidden gems.
If you want to explore some of the rich landscapes up close, look no further than the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail (BVRT). A completely car-free track on a disused railway line, the BVRT runs for 161 kilometres through farmland, forests and country towns.
In West Moreton, we have the unique advantage of being on the doorstep of three major cities (Brisbane, Ipswich and Toowoomba), giving the people who live and work here the best of both city and country lifestyles.
