Regional QLD

From the magnificent diversity of the Channel Country in the South West, the heritage-rich Matilda Country of the Central West and the ancient dinosaur, fossil and mining country in the North West, you’ll discover a fascinating land of beauty, diversity and vibrant colours in Outback Queensland.

Stretching from Mitchell in the east to Birdsville in the west, the South West is a fusion of stunning red sand hills and magnificent flora and fauna. Take a four wheel drive adventure over rugged plains, try your hand at fishing in the billabongs, rivers and lakes or admire the countless species of bird life. Stay on a working livestock station and experience first hand the warm outback hospitality. Take the plunge in a natural mud bath or soak in the hot artesian springs for which the area is famous.

Experience the heritage and history that has shaped the nation in the Central West. Explore the landscape that inspired the lyrics to Banjo Paterson’s iconic ballad, Waltzing Matilda. Learn of the pioneering years through innovative museums, attractions and exhibitions. Come and see where the legend of the stockman started and where Qantas carved its name into Australian history. The Central West is also the perfect place to enjoy some traditional bush tucker around the campfire and be entertained with yarns of the glory days.

The North West is dinosaur fossil country, where the rocky terrain is harsh but beautiful, and the colours stark but striking. It really is the sunburnt country, a rugged landscape that stretches as far as the eye can see. Here you’ll discover where ancient creatures once roamed and experience spectacular Outback sunsets. Delve underground on a working mine tour, trek to breathtaking gorges or try your hand at fossicking. Be amazed by stunning hidden lakes and dams and drop your line in for a spot of superb freshwater fishing.
