Tour Details
The Channel Country is one of the most sparsely populated areas of Outback Queensland, but what it lacks in people it makes up for in cattle. Fed by rivers, such as the Georgina, Diamantina and Cooper Creek, its braided channels come to life after rain, creating rich cattle-fattening country. The tour begins and ends in Longreach, home of the Stockman’s Hall of Fame, and features visits to well-known cattle stations, character-filled outback towns including Winton, Boulia and Bedourie, plus two nights at the iconic Birdsville Hotel.
Tour Highlights:
- Visit iconic and successful company and privately owned stations
- Birdsville and a 2-night stay at the iconic Birdsville Hotel encompassing the surrounding area – the Racecourse, Big Red, Channel Country , Simpson & Sturt Stony Deserts
