Lockyer Creek forms the southern and eastern borders of Mount Tarampa. Most of the area is flat apart from Mount Tarampa (150 metres above sea level) which is located in the southern part of the locality. The land use near the creek is irrigated crop growing with some
grazing on native vegetation in the north-west of the locality. The eastern part of the locality is mainly
rural residential with the school located in this area. == History ==
