A dump point is located at Wondai Road.A number of other delightful and diverse experiences await you in Chinchilla. Nature lovers will enjoy the amazing variety of bird life and unusual flora, and history buffs will find hours of enjoyment discovering the historic landmarks on the various tourist drives available.
