Dayboro sits around 50 minutes northwest of Brisbane… a small country town with a big heart, offering plenty for day trippers and weekender warriors – plus staples like a pub, baker, and butcher.
Dayboro Village Meats have levelled up from your traditional meat merchants, offering snags that pack-a-punch… and perfect for a bush BBQ! Which is exactly what we’re doing.
Just follow the bitumen of Lacey’s Creek Road… as it winds its way through local grazing lands… and you’ll find yourself on the way to D’Aguilar National Park.
This is the official southern track for Mount Mee and easily one of the closest places to Brisbane where you can get your fix of fourbie action. Plus, no permits are required. All you need is a registered four-wheel drive. Best to check if the tracks are open before you make the journey there.
Along the way, there are plenty of lookouts to stop at and break up the drive – including Kluvers, which offers an eastern outlook to Moreton Bay – plus Somerset – where you can take in the western side of the Great Dividing Range. It’s a cracking spot to spend sundown.
If you find yourself driving back in the dark – then check out ARB’s new Intensity IQ LED Lights. They have thousands of beam patterns to suit any road condition – combining super spot, spot, flood, and midrange.
- The Super Spot and Spot optic, based on free-form reflector technology, produce an even spot beam for extended distance illumination.
- The Flood optic has a specially designed lens to maximise the light spread for excellent foreground visibility.
- The Midrange optic employs a conventional parabolic reflector to illuminate the midrange area.
