Outback Attractions

|
The Outback (Gulf Country) between Karumba and the boundary with the Northern Territory has few attractions and few facilities for visitors.
To the south of this, extending down to the lonely little settlement of Birdsville on the border with South Australia, is the Channel Country, which also has little to tempt visitors: hot and dusty in the dry season, hot and muggy in the rainy season, with roads often impassable by flooding. Between the Channel Country and the Gulf Country are Cloncurry and Mount Isa, two outposts of civilization in the outback.
