Rental Property & Holiday Accommodation

Outback South Western

Queensland Outback starts at the Great Dividing Range and heads west to the Northern Territory and South Australia borders. There are several main highways leading through the Queensland outback, although once you head off of these tracks the roads deteriorate. If travelling through the outback you should make sure that you have all essential supplies and plenty of fresh water, and notify someone if heading off of the beaten track.

West of Brisbane through the pretty Darling Downs you will finally reach Charleville. The town is situated along the Warrego River and has an interesting Historical House Museum, and a great Aboriginal Workshop. Several other places of interest include the School of the Air and the fascinating Skywatch. South of Charleville is Cunnamulla, a sheep farming town which has exceptional wildflowers in Spring.

If you continue west of Charleville, you will reach the Channel Country, which is the south western corner of Queensland where the Queensland border meets the New South Wales, Northern Territory and South Australia borders. The area is extremely dry, with the Diamantina, Georgina and Hamilton Rivers only wet when water has poured down from North Queensland during the Monsoon season. This water then continues towards South Australia's Lake Eyre.

The first place you will come across is Quilpie which is an opal mining town, 210km west of Charleville. There are general facilities here, and a fuel station. From here you can head south west past Eulo, Noccundra, Thargomindah and the Yowah Opal Fields. Eulo gets busy during August/September when it holds the World Lizard Racing Championships, which are great to see. You can continue from here to Innamincka and follow the Strzelecki Track into South Australia.

Continuing west of Quilpie you will get to Windorah, which is the last stopping point for fuel before you get to Birdsville. (Make sure you have plenty of fuel to make the 348km.) You can also head north west towards Bedourie. North of Bedourie is Boulia, which has an interesting museum and features the bizarre Min Min Light (which looks like car headlights hovering above the ground). It is then a further 295km to Mt Isa.

Continuing north from Longreach towards Mt Isa, you will pass the Carisbrooke Station which offers Aboriginal paintings and a Wildlife Sanctuary, and the Lark Quarry Environmental Park which displays dinosaur footprints. North again you will pass Winton, a sheep town. North again is Kynuna, which has a popular pub and its own surf life saving club. From Kynuna you can visit the Combo Waterhole which was supposedly visited by Banjo Paterson before writing 'Waltzing Matilda'. Another famous spot is north again at McKinlay, which is home to the Walkabout Creek Hotel which featured in 'Crocodile Dundee'.
