The stereotypical Australian Outback; home to endless horizons, prolific native wildlife, rugged landscapes, vivid red earth, historic mining towns and bright blue skies. You may not bump into Crocodile Dundee, but you’re sure to meet a few memorable Outback characters.
The vast semi-arid landscape, while parched, is remarkably beautiful. Scattered throughout the land you'll find iconic Outback city of Broken Hill, the black opal producing town of Lightning Ridge, and the quirky 'ghost town' of Silverton, which had a brief but spectacular career as a silver mining town in the 1880s.
Sometimes referred to as the Silver City, Broken Hill is smack bang in the middle of nowhere. With a reputation for a vibrant arts scene, jaw dropping scenery and grand historic buildings; Broken Hill is a unique Outback town which must be seen to be believed.
Wentworth is generally considered to be the entrance for Australias longest river - the Darling, and a good staging point for tours of Mungo National Park.Photos
