Jambin

A rural hub with a pub to service weary travellers, Jambin is on the Burnett Highway just south of Smoky Creek. Part of the Callide Valley, the town is wedged between the Callide Creek to the west and the highway to the east, making it a picturesque spot to stop.

Callide Creek is a vital tributary of the Don River, supporting all kinds of farming, cultural and recreational activities. The creek is also a favourite with fishing buffs and well stocked with local varieties including, saratoga, golden perch and yellow belly.

For a tiny village Jambin holds some big events.

Jambin Hotel’s Annual Woodchop & Chainsaw Competition in March draws in the crowds whilst locals from around the shire come out to test their skills and join the excitement of the Jambin Champagne Campdraft held in September.

A drive along the Argoon-Kilburnie Road will take you to the heritage listed Kilburnie Homestead. Built in 1884, this beautifully maintained pastoralist’s home has been in the Campbell family for four generations and was heritage listed with the Queensland Government in 1992.
