Rockhampton Zoo

Spencer Street, Rockhampton QLD 4700

Nestled within the tranquil Botanic Gardens and adjacent to the Murray Lagoon, the Rockhampton Zoo is home to more than 50 species of native and exotic animals. It’s the perfect place for families to see magnificent and cheeky creatures, great and small in their natural surroundings and best of all it’s free to visit.

You can view our most intimidating resident, the ‘Colonel’ saltwater crocodile, or get up close to our koalas, kangaroos and the exotic lion tailed macaques. As you walk through the zoo you will be sure to come across our most loveable residents, the Chimpanzees. Always found roaming around their giant enclosure, their daily feeding show with the zoo keepers are just part of the reason why visitors keep returning to this special part of Rockhampton. 

You’ll also find animals native to Central Queensland and observe the purpose built homes of wombats, Frank, Katie and Donna. A day at the Rockhampton Zoo is the perfect outing for families!

Keeper talks and feedings begin at 2.45pm and go through to 3.30pm. Please see zoo signage for details on the day.

Zamia Walk

Mount Archer National Park, Rockhampton QLD 4700

The Darumbal Aboriginal people welcome you to their traditional country and ask that you respect and enjoy this special place.

Mount Archer is home to a variety of woodland birds including the vulnerable powerful owl. Glossy black cockatoos can also be seen feeding on she-oak seeds. If you wait quietly, you may see unadorned rock-wallabies come to drink from Moores Creek in the early morning and late afternoon. The dry rainforest communities are areas of high conservation value and include several plant species with restricted distributions.

Rockhampton War Memorial Logo and Images

Rockhampton War Memorial

Penlington Street, Rockhampton QLD 4700

Most WWI memorials are treasured for the local history they provide - the roll call of citizens who fought, forever recorded. Rockhampton War Memorial however is uniquely devoid of such detail. The 19.5 metre obelisk, made from locally sourced Gracemere grey granite, was unveiled by Queensland Governor Sir Matthew Nathan on 16 October 1924. Few WWI memorials in Queensland are of the scale or cost of this regional monument, designed by architects Hockings and Palmer and produced by monumental masons FM Allen for £2,654, the most expensive in Queensland. Unfortunately funds wouldn't stretch to recording the soldiers' names on the monument. An honour board was planned for the soon to be completed Soldiers Club rooms. One of the architects, Edwin Morton Hockings, had first-hand knowledge of war: he was wounded while commanding a squadron in the Boer War and served in WWI. The First World War Memorial is located in Rockhampton's Botanic Gardens. A gun, or war trophy, is located nearby.

Maaret Sinkko: The twilight of thought and sensation

62 Victoria Parade, Rockhampton QLD 4700
A Rockhampton Art Gallery exhibition. Maaret Sinkko's "The twilight of thought and sensation" is inspired by the tragically heroic story of Australian tonalist painter Clarice Beckett. Unmarried and encumbered by parents in poor health, Beckett sought inspiration in her local landscape and surrounds in the twilight hours afforded to her. Sinkko, less tragically encumbered by daytime employment, has sought to embark on somewhat of an artistic pilgrimage to replicate working rapidly in the twilight hours of the day. Working en plein air in short bursts in her local surrounds Sinkko hopes to capture places spiritually akin to Beckett, albeit in her own distinctive style. "The twilight of thought and sensation" is the second exhibition to be displayed in the Merilyn Luck Gallery for Central Queensland artists. This new body of oil paintings by active local artist Maaret Sinkko presents a somewhat spiritual and highly personal insight into our local landscape - caught at the romantic hours of the day....
