Living in Dimbulah
Dimbulah is a small, friendly rural community located 90 minutes drive west of Cairns in the Mareeba Shire region. The town was established in 1876 to service the Tyrconnell Gold Mine and the name Dimbulah is thought to have come from the local Indigenous word for long waterhole, referring to the nearby Walsh River. Dimbulah is primarily an agricultural region boasting a variety of crops and a multitude of market gardens. Today the population is around 1400, and people from a variety of backgrounds contribute to our local community with the predominant influence being Italian.
Dimbulah is a well serviced rural town, with a variety of sporting clubs, community groups, a library, health clinic and a number of restaurants and shops within the town. Mareeba is only a short drive away, as is Kuranda, and Cairns is an easy drive for a spur of the moment weekend getaway!
