Is Pinnacle bushfire-prone?

Yes - around 69% of Pinnacle is mapped as bushfire-prone, compared with a Mackay Regional average of 26%. A bushfire-prone designation can trigger additional building requirements, so check the specific address.

What is the zoning in Pinnacle?

The dominant planning zone in Pinnacle is Rural, though the suburb also includes Conservation and Special purpose. Zoning sets what you can build and do on a site, and can differ lot by lot.

Does Pinnacle have heritage-listed places?

Is Pinnacle hilly or flat?

Pinnacle is largely flat: the median lot slope is about 4%, and 8% of properties sit on slopes of 15% or steeper. Ground level runs from roughly 65 m to 266 m AHD across the suburb.
