Geography

The locality presumably takes its name from the hill Vinegar Hill in the south-west of the locality ( 27°28′36″S152°14′15″E / 27.4766°S 152.2376°E / -27.4766; 152.2376 (Vinegar Hill) ) which rises to 391 metres (1,283 ft) above sea level. [3] [4]

Most of the locality is within the Lockyer National Park which extends into neighbouring Seventeen Mile and Ringwood. There are two sections of the locality in the south and south-east not within the national park; the land use within these is predominantly grazing on native vegetation. [5]

Vinegar Hill virus

The locality gives its name to the Vinegar Hill orthonairovirus, which is a tick-bourne. In 1981, the virus was isolated on the Australian mainland from a pool of five female Argasidae robertsi ticks collected from a rookery of the cattle egret ( Bulbulcus ibis ) in the Gatton area in December 1981.
