Bundaberg Hummock

[2] The summit of the hill holds both a memorial to Bert Hinkler and the heritage listed Sir Anthony's Rest.

From the deck of HMS Norfolk, Lieutenant Matthew Flinders took a bearing on a small volcanic outcrop, five kilometres to the south of Mon Repos beach.

[3] 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.

[5] 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.

[8][9] The sides of the Hummock have attracted residential development to take advantage of the views.
