From Airlie Beach we backtracked north on the Bruce Highway to Townsville. We had given ourselves all day to travel the 280km journey - so it gave us time to explore some of the sights on the way.
Our first stop was Bowen. We had never pulled into Bowen on previous trips north and south, so we decided to head to Flagstaff Hill and check out the signposted Interpretive Centre. The Interpretive Centre consisted of a couple of information billboards in a café. It might have been a stretch to call it an Interpretive Centre, but the view from the top was very pleasing.
