The Condamine The Condamine River system flows all the way to Adelaide, seeing majestic waterfalls, rich farmlands and stopping at country cafes. There’s also an optional loop for four wheel drives through the Condamine Gorge, crossing the river some 13 times. See "Adventure Options" below for details. The Condamine river is believed to be one of the tracks used by Aborigines to traverse the range between the Darling Downs and the Logan river catchment, as it is now known. In the 1850's timber cutters used the gorge to reach Cedar growing on the side of Mt. Superbus. When timber mills were established later at the "Head" it became the main road out for sawn timber going to the railway in Killarney. The Condamine River still to this day has to be crossed 14 times and is impassible in floods. A common site for someone riding on horse back out to "The Head" was to pass around 12 bullock teams hauling timber through the gorge. There are many tales told of valiant efforts to get ladies through the floods before their babies came. As the hillside gradually become clear-cut of timber, people started dairy farming. A local man by the name of Doug Peterson used to take the cream to Killarney twice a week. A road over Spring creek mountain was opened in 1957 and today the road through the gorge is mostly used by tourists in 4wd vehicles who come to see the beauty of the rock formations and the river as it passes from one pool to another.
