Beechmont: Gore Airfield -> Facing West
Among the places of Southland, Gore stands out for its position on the Mataura River amid the broad farming country of the eastern Southland Plains. Gore Airfield lies on the town’s outskirts, where open paddocks and low hills give the surrounding terrain a spacious, rural character. The Mataura is one of New Zealand’s best-known trout-fishing rivers and has long shaped settlement and farming in this part of the South Island. In town, the Hokonui Moonshine Museum explores the local story of illicit whisky-making, while the annual New Zealand Gold Guitar Awards underline Gore’s place in the country-music scene. This is a practical regional centre where aviation, agriculture and the river valley are closely connected.

Beechmont has served as a farming community in Queensland’s Scenic Rim since the early 20th century. Set on a ridge in the Gold Coast hinterland, it overlooks the Numinbah Valley and lies close to Lamington National Park, part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Area. This is a rural district of pasture, forest and winding mountain roads rather than a built-up resort centre. Beechmont State School, opened in 1916, remains a local landmark, while nearby Binna Burra is a long-established starting point for walks into Lamington’s rainforest.

Queensland extends from Torres Strait in the north to the New South Wales border in the south, encompassing a tropical coastline and a vast, dry interior. Along the Coral Sea, the Great Barrier Reef runs beside the state’s eastern shore, while inland plains, grazing country and long distances define much of central and western Queensland. This location lies in the interior, where settlements are widely spaced and open outback horizons contrast with the humid coast. Queensland is home to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, whose enduring connections to Country underpin its cultural identity.

Australia’s terrain extends from tropical rainforests in the northeast to arid plains in the interior, producing dramatic climatic contrasts. The Great Dividing Range follows much of the eastern coast, while the Great Barrier Reef lies off Queensland in the Coral Sea and Uluru rises from the central desert. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples maintain living cultures whose connections to Country long predate European settlement. In Sydney, the sail-like Opera House, completed in 1973, stands beside one of the world’s best-known harbours. Discover further points of interest through webcams located across Australia.
