Dululu, Queensland

A splash of vivid yellow could be a clue that you are approaching the township of Dululu, which is located south-west of Rockhampton.

This is sunflower territory and late summer is the time to get the best out of the colour. It is also cotton-growing country with further competition for the country space coming from cattle. Little wonder there is only a relatively small number of humans taking up the remainder of available land. The little town has one of those beaut old Queensland pubs and for travellers there are camping facilities, along with a rest area with barbecue and picnic tables.
