The Queensland Outback is both strikingly beautiful and surprisingly full of life. History is alive and well here, and some of it goes way back.
Every outback town has it's own history and plenty of stories to tell, and each contributes in it's own way to the overall story of Australia. There are attractions you’ve probably heard about, but a lot more you probably wont have.
And the bush is famous for its hospitality for good reason. In the outback, you can really gain a sense of where the Australian spirit of innovation, self reliance and determination came from. You can go home, but once you’ve felt that spirit, it will never leave you.
