Glenlyon is a rural locality in the Southern Downs Region, Queensland, Australia. In the 2016 census, Glenlyon had a population of 24 people.

The locality's name is derived from Glenlyon pastoral run taken up in 1844 by Alexander McLeod. The run can be seen on an 1883 Darling Downs Run Map on Pikes Creek, south of Pikes Creek run. In 1996 Scott McLeod Walker, a great grandson of Alexander McLeod, privately wrote and published a book entitled Glenlyon Connections. The book contains a history of the pastoral run and of some of the families who owned it.
