About Childers:
Childers is located 311 km north of Brisbane via the Bruce Highway. It is 60 km northwest of Maryborough, 54 km south of Bundaberg and 108 m above sea level. Childers came into existence as a service town for the surrounding sugar cane fields. Today it combines tourism - the town has a wealth of historic buildings - with a surrounding agriculture of sugar cane, avocadoes and macadamia nuts. The local council successfully capitalised on the tourist traffic by dubbing the town 'Historic Childers - The National Trust Town' and providing opportunities for visitors to explore the region's interesting past. Combined with the age of the unusual Brazilian Leopard Trees which line the main street it has become a magnet for people making the trek north towards Cairns.
