About Widgee Crossing North

Widgee Crossing North is a small rural locality in the Gympie Region of south-east Queensland, situated about 5.8 kilometres west of Gympie and approximately 175 kilometres north of Brisbane. Covering just 3.4 square kilometres along the banks of the Mary River, it is one of Queensland's most sparsely populated localities with only 20 residents recorded in the 2021 census. The area sits within the broader Gympie hinterland, characterised by river flats, native bush and pastoral land. Its proximity to Gympie provides access to essential services.

The Mary River corridor through Widgee Crossing North supports diverse wildlife, including large colonies of grey-headed flying foxes that gather in the riparian vegetation. The locality appeals to those seeking a secluded semi-rural lifestyle with the convenience of Gympie town just a short drive away. Residents enjoy access to Gympie's schools, shops, hospital and community services, while the surrounding Sunshine Coast hinterland and Fraser Coast offer recreational and tourism opportunities. It is a fitting retreat for nature lovers and those who value quiet, low-density living.

Widgee Crossing North falls under postcode 4570 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Nanango electorate.
