Download coordinates as: Dalbeg is a rural town and locality in the Shire of Burdekin, Queensland, Australia.

[1] Dalbeg farming community located inland from the townships of Ayr and Home Hill.

Situated on the banks of the Burdekin River, it is a fertile area famous for growing sugar cane and vegetables.

The earliest explorers coming from the Gulf region (The Plains of Promise) used Expedition Pass through the mountains to arrive at the banks of the Burdekin River at this fording point where they then crossed into Strathalbyn Station.

[citation needed] The area was originally known as Akala until the Queensland Surveyor General changed the name to Dalbeg, the name of a pastoral run taken up by pastoralist James Hall Scott on 28 May 1863.
