The Summit and Applethorpe
Famous as one of the coldest places in Queensland, The Summit is home to the highest railway station in Australia.
For generations, the northern Granite Belt has produced virtually 100% of all apples in Queensland. Today, over 5,000 backpackers from around the world descend on the region every year to help pick the produce and enjoy time on an Australian farm.
