Central Highlands Region

Covering a broad expanse of central Queensland, the Central Highlands region is anchored by the service town of Emerald and surrounded by mining, cattle and grain industries. The area includes gemfields where sapphires are still found by fossickers and the vast waters of Fairbairn Dam. Locals appreciate a quiet picnic beside the lake’s shaded shore and enjoy spending weekends fossicking for gems in small claims around Rubyvale and Sapphire, where the thrill of discovery still lingers.

Central Highlands Council has an approximate area of 60,000 km².

It is within the state electorate of Gregory.
