In 1827 Allan Cunningham set out from the upper Hunter River. to explore inside the Dividing Range, discovering the Darling Downs; returning in 1828 from Brisbane to discover Cunninghams Gap. Cunningham travelled on the right hand side of the Gap whereas the highway today runs on the lefthand side from Aratula.
