EVERYONE IS WELCOME IN ROCKHAMPTON – INCLUSIVE TOURISM AT ITS BEST

Rockhampton in Queensland Australia offers an experience for every kind of traveller and every kind of accessibility level. Whether it be soaking in the stunning views from atop Mount Archer (Nurim), or meeting our mischievous mob of meerkats at the Rockhampton Zoo, you can explore Rockhampton at ease with everything you need to know to stay, play and eat in our region.

From detailed accessibility guides to firsthand accounts of remarkable adventures, we’re set to redefine inclusivity in travel.

Advance Rockhampton has launched the Explore Rockhampton accessible tourism campaign, aiming to assist local tourism operators in catering to the accessibility needs of travellers.

The campaign's first phase will focus primarily on mobility, showcasing inclusive experiences across Rockhampton, with subsequent phases addressing other accessibility needs such as hearing or vision impairment.

Ensuring everyone can enjoy the region's offerings, the campaign includes producing content that highlights the more technical aspects of travel, like hallway width, lift access and ramps, alongside descriptions of lived experiences, empowering those with disabilities and their companions to make informed decisions when planning a trip to Rockhampton.
