Exploring the Southern Downs through the free official Southern Downs & Granite Belt Visitor App is easier than ever with new upgrades that make it a breeze to experience everything there is to see, do and discover in our region.

The new version of the app #SeeSouthernDowns can be used 100 per cent offline, putting essential information about the region’s towns, accommodation, restaurants, cafes, wineries, tourist drives, events, art and heritage trails, attractions and tours at your fingertips no matter where you are.

Southern Downs Councillor Sheryl Windle said the enhancements now make it even more user-friendly to explore and enjoy all the attractions, activities and experiences on offer across the region.

“We have the perfect mix of breathtaking natural landscapes, immersive wine experiences, fresh local produce and exhilarating events celebrated across four distinct seasons,” Councillor Windle said.

“Visitors to the region can find information on the best time to visit, directions, road closures and the locations of public amenities and Visitor Information Centres.

“You can search for activities or places using names or filters, and you can even create your own itinerary under the My Day heart at the bottom of the screen by clicking the heart on any item in the app that you want to explore at a later date.”
