Overview

Nestled in a fertile valley 181 km north‑west of Brisbane, Yarraman is a rural town where timber, grain, beef and dairy farms supply larger cities, and the nearby Meandu Mine adds a mining element to the local economy. Surrounded by fragments of the Bunya Mountains and the Yarraman Important Bird Area, residents enjoy easy access to natural scenery and the region’s largest population of the vulnerable black‑breasted button‑quail. At the 2021 census the locality recorded 1,127 people, many of whom are families tied to agriculture, mining and community services.

The town sits at the junction of the New England and D’Aguilar highways and marks the northern end of the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail, offering cyclists and walkers a 161‑km route along the former rail line. Everyday convenience comes from the refurbished Yarraman Library and Post Office, the Memorial Pool on the New England Highway, community radio Wild Horse FM 99.7, three churches and the QCWA Hall. Yarraman State School (Prep‑9) serves 187 students (2022), while senior secondary students travel to Nanango, underscoring a family‑friendly environment with a blend of town‑centre homes and larger rural properties.
