Bloomsbury is a rural town right at the heart of
the Queensland region. Right in the northern
part of Bloomsbury lies a system of rivers that
includes the O'Connell River and the
Andromache River that end up at the Coral
Sea. The major highway that passes through the
Bloomsbury area is Bruce Highway. This
connects Bloomsbury to the Mackay region.
Driving through Bloomsbury shows a pleasant
countryside. There are few houses in the area
as most of the land is relegated to farming and
cattle raising.

The Cathu Forest Lookout provides stunning
views to the mountain ridges in the
surrounding area. The highest point can allow
mountaineers spectacular sights that can
extend up to Airlie Beach. There are a lot of
open forest areas in Bloomsbury and most of
the community loves going to nearby beaches
for swimming and other seaside recreational
activities. Bloomsbury provides a quiet and
peaceful respite away from the city.
