About Rewan
Rewan is a sparsely populated rural locality in Queensland's Central Highlands Region, lying approximately 200 km south of Emerald and 360 km from Rockhampton. Covering around 2,069 square kilometres of rugged brigalow and sandstone country, it recorded just 49 residents in the 2021 census. The locality sits adjacent to Carnarvon National Park, one of Queensland's most spectacular gorge landscapes.
The locality's character is shaped by cattle grazing and the extraordinary natural environment of the surrounding Carnarvon Gorge region, which draws bushwalkers, nature lovers, and 4WD enthusiasts from across Queensland. There are no urban services in Rewan itself; the nearest town facilities are at Rolleston, about 62 km to the north. Residents live a highly self-sufficient outback lifestyle on large rural holdings.
Rewan falls under postcode 4702 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Rockhampton electorate.
