This part of Queensland is known for its endless fields of sunflowers, some of them with blooms measuring more than 30 inches across. They love the sunny skies and comfortably warm temperatures you’ll find during summer in and around Toowoomba.

Stock your wicker basket with local goodies and spend a lazy afternoon at the aptly named Picnic Point, where you’ll be treated to unbeatable views of the edge of the Great Dividing Range.

Itching to stretch your legs? Head to the center of town to take in the carefully clipped topiaries in 19th-century Queens Park. Escape the sweltering heat under the grand old trees, or hit the trails past perfectly manicured gardens edged by walls of greenery.

Say goodbye to the sultry days of summer, as autumn brings lower humidity and milder temperatures. Head to the nearby national parks, where the trees are awash with shades of red, orange and gold.

Kick off the busy harvest season at Preston Peak Wines, about 10 minutes from the city in the Great Dividing Range. Sample local reds, famous for their distinctly rich flavor, while taking in the views of Lockyer Valley.

The cooler temperatures makes fall the best time to conquer Table Top Mountain, a training ground for hikers preparing for more ambitious summits. The loose gravel and rocks along the well-worn trail are a challenge for all skill levels. The views from the summit make it well worth the effort.

Organize your own safari at Darling Downs Zoo, home to the only pride of African lions in Queensland. There are also a number of native Australian animals, including cuddly capybaras.

Cool days and crisp, clear skies make this the right time of year to explore the 150-plus parks and gardens scattered around this inland city. As Toowoomba is becoming more and more popular for winter getaways, it’s best to book your accommodation early to avoid high prices creeping up on you.

Looking for complete relaxation? Head to Toowoomba Salt Cave, where you can bathe in the pink glow of a specially built cavern of Himalayan salt.

Winter might be the ideal time to stroll across the red bridges at Ju Raku En Japanese Gardens, since you’re more likely to have them to yourself. Clusters of bamboo and carefully aligned boulders add to the sense of serenity.

Homemade breads, pastas, and jams are among the items on offer at Saturday morning’s Toowoomba Farmers Markets.

The beginning of spring means a few more showers during the day, and umbrellas are unavoidable as the humidity picks up later in the season. But there’s plenty to love about Toowoomba in spring, especially during the long-running Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers. The off-season rates at hotels make this a perfect destination for anyone on a tighter budget.

There’s no better place to kick off the season than at Laurel Bank Park, where the gardeners go all out for the Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers. One year the flower beds were shaped like dinosaurs, including an amazing yellow and purple pterodactyl.

The meandering streets and alleys of Toowoomba have been transformed into an open-air art gallery. Murals of all shapes and sizes make for great photo-ops.

A 17-minute drive from the city center, 150-year-old Spring Bluff Railway Station is a great excursion any time of year. It’s particularly pretty in spring, when poppies and other perennials cover the grounds.

Price trend information excludes taxes and fees and is based on base rates for a nightly stay for 2 adults found in the last 7 days on our site and averaged for commonly viewed hotels in Toowoomba. Select dates and complete search for nightly totals inclusive of taxes and fees.

  • Laurel Bank Park
    Laurel Bank Park is a beautiful 4.5 hectare parkland close to Toowoomba's city centre, featuring spectacular manicured gardens, a scented garden, a collection of exotic trees, a playground, picnic area, gazebo and croquet greens. Beautiful year-round, but known for its sublime spring displays and avenues of cherry blossoms, it is most magnificent during Carnival of Flowers each September. The Scented Gardens, are a 'garden within a garden' created from ideas presented by the Downs Association of the Blind, and feature fragrant blooms, herbs and shrubs in raised beds. The park came into being in 1932 when Darling Downs Building Society Managing Director, Mr Samuel George Stephens, donated the land to the people of Toowoomba, with the City Council official custodian. Prior to gifting the land, Mr Stephens improved it with shrubs and flowers, and was known to many as 'the man of flowers'.

  • Queens Park Botanic Gardens
    A stroll through the State Heritage listed Queens Park and Botanic Gardens is an absolute must for any visitor to the Garden City. Set across more than 25 picturesque hectares, the parkland has been enjoyed by generations of locals and regional visitors since it first opened to the public in the late 1800s. It's a beautiful calm space where nature showcases its seasonal offerings, alongside the city's bustling CBD. In spring and summer, riotous colour spots garden beds in a shout out to the warmer weather, while autumn obliges with its own radiant show. Dollops of red and orange swirl across the landscape as the leaves of giant deciduous trees transform and fall, laying a textured, multi-coloured carpet underneath. A variety of community activities and annual events are also hosted at Queens Park and Botanic Gardens with Toowoomba's internationally renowned Carnival of Flowers and its signature Flower, Food and Wine Festival leading the way.
