Qunaba, Queensland

Qunaba is a rural locality in the Bundaberg Region, Queensland, Australia.

[3][4] The sides of the Hummock have attracted residential development to take advantage of the views.

Originally established as the Mon Repos plantation and mill, it was taken over in 1900 by the Queensland National Bank who renamed it Qunaba (coined from QUeensland NAtional BAnk).

[7] In 1930, the Bundaberg branch of the Royal Automobile Club of Queensland (RACQ) acquired the land at the top of the Hummock in order to create a park for motoring tourists to enjoy the views.

[9] On 14 August 1937, the President of the RACQ unveiled a memorial to the Bundaberg-born aviator Bert Hinkler on the top of the Hummock.
