This is an expansive landscape extending north from the New South Wales/ Queensland border almost all the way to the Gulf Country. This vast part of our great continent offers amazing diversity punctuated by the many colourful characters of the Australian Bush. It's the people of Queensland's Outback, living in complete harmony in a timeless landscape, who can make a visit such a memorable event. Whether you spend time with the opal fossickers of Opalton or Yowah, the miners of Mount Isa or a local in a bush pub, you're always welcome in Queensland's Outback.
There are a great many reasons why you should visit Queensland's Outback - but here are a few to get you started:
* Meet the people of the Outback and enjoy their hospitality
* Experience at first hand the rich heritage that shaped our nation
* Follow in the footsteps of some of Australia's most famous explorers
* Experience the colourful events of the Ouback including camel races, dunny derbys, rodeos and lizard races
* Spend a night on a host farm and experience life on a working station
* Gaze at the stars in clear night skies
* Take the opportunity to discover ancient dinosaur and fossil sites
* Visit the home of Waltzing Matilda
* Experience the wide open spaces and natural beauty of the Outback scenery and landscapes
