Adare is a locality in the Lockyer Valley Region, Queensland, Australia.[1]
Geography
The Warrego Highway forms most of the locality's southern boundary. The Gatton-Esk Road forms most of its eastern boundary. Lockyer Creek forms the south-eastern boundary.[2]
Adare is predominantly freeland farming land, a mix of crops and grazing; the land ranges from 100-150 metres above sea level. In the northern tip of the locality is an unnamed peak of 250 metres which is a small part of the Lockyer National Park which is predominantly located in the adjacent locality of Vinegar Hill. Redbank Creek rises in Vinegar Hill and flows from the north to the south-east through Adare entering Lockyer Creek immediately before Jordan Weir.[2]
