A good discussion with Peter Homan CEO Outback Qld Tourism- about the value of going into Visitor Information Centres to get the local tips and tricks about the local area- which google doesn't have. Join the Outback Mates passport programme and get great deals throughout Outback Qld. We chat about 2 new experiences on offer, that are well worth while... at Charleville and Julia Creek... By visiting the Outback in dry times you make a significant contribution to local economies, with the the growing number of agri-tourism / farm stays- you can make a difference to farmers too.

The Outback Way has become a symbol of resilience, connection, and progress, weaving together the diverse landscapes and communities of Australia's heartland.
In celebration of the 25-year journey of advocacy and lobbying to the funding announcement to complete the seal, the Outback Highway Development Council is proud to present ‘From Bulldust to Bitumen – 25 Years of the Outback Way’. A book that captures the spirit, history, and future vision of this transformative project.
