Book Direct with the Owner at Cooyar with Accommodation in Surfers Paradise in Cooyar, for all your restaurant and Food Reservations.
Located north of Toowoomba on the New England Highway, Cooyar is a tranquil country village. The wide verandahs of Cooyar Hotel are a friendly spot for a drink and the low-down on what to see and do around the town. You'll have to be up early or wait patiently at dusk to spot a platypus in Cooyar Creek. The best vantage is from the suspension bridge in Swinging Bridge Park. This suspension bridge was rebuilt in 1988 after a devastating flood swept away the previous bridge, a local hall, three houses and several cars.
Each February Cooyar's Agricultural Show features great country competitions, including a night rodeo.
Easily accessed from Cooyar, the Palms National Park preserves remnant rainforest and a stand of piccabeen palms in a spring-fed gully. Whilst at the park enjoy a 650 metre circuit walk looking for grey-headed flying foxes camping over the creek in summers and black-breasted button quails in winter and spring. See the piccabeen palms, large strangler figs, Bunya and hoop pine trees and buttressed trees....
