Tolga in the Tablelands Region of Queensland, Australia.

 

The Barron River forms the north-east boundary of the region. The south-western of the locality is the Great Divising Range which creates the drainage divide that separates the drainage basin of the Barron River (which flows to the Coral Sea) from that of the Mitchell River (which flows to the Gulf of Carpentaria).

 

The northern and eastern parts of Tolga are relatively flat land used for growing crops. The western parts are more mountainous and are mostly undeveloped. Bones Knob is a peak to the west of the town above sea level.

 

The Tolga Scrub on the southern side of town is one of the last remaining areas of Mabi rainforest on the Atherton Tableland. It is the most drought resistant type of rainforest in Australia.
