Starting at the Great Dividing Range and heading west to the Northern Territory and South Australian borders, Outback Queensland offers tourists a great break and the opportunity to explore. Visit the outback after the rain to see the region brimming with life with an abundance of birds, desert flowers and greener pastures, or travel the sand dunes and its natural diversity in the drier months.

Picturesque bushwalking trails and unspoiled wilderness depict the South West, otherwise known as Channel Country. Try your hand at fishing in the many billabongs, rivers and lakes, dip in a natural mud bath or soak in the hot artesian springs for which the area is famous.

Explore the majestic landscape of the Central West that is Matilda Country, known for inspiring Banjo Paterson’s iconic Australians ballad. The North West offers Dinosaur, Fossil and Mining Country, a rugged landscape that stretches as far as the eye can see.

Extending from the Great Dividing Range in the east to the Northern Territory border in the west, the Gulf Savannah region is a country of golden grasslands full of wildlife, mining heritage, great rivers and stunning outback landscapes.

Experience the startling contrasts, wide open spaces, local hospitality and natural essence of the Queensland Outback.
