The essence of Outback Queensland

Nestled in the south west corner of Queensland, Paroo Shire is a ‘destination location’ where travelers meet and experience the best that outback Australia can offer.  Steeped in history the local towns of Cunnamulla, Eulo, Wyandra and Yowah have their own personalities and yarns about how they helped build the story of outback Queensland.

Travelers are after destinations, events and experiences and Paroo Shire delivers that and more.  The iconic Cunnamulla Fella Festival leads the way in celebrating everything about the outback, with the Yowah Opal Festival, Artesian Mud Baths, Tinnenburra Shearing Shed, Wyandra Heritage Trail, dinosaurs, Indigenous cultural attractions, National Parks, and amazing fauna and flora and much more rounding out a package of experiences without comparison.

If you’re into ‘outback gastronomy’ you’ve come to the right place, with local farmers and graziers supplying the freshest of meat and produce to local restaurants and eateries, giving you a true paddock to plate experience.

After a day exploring it’s always nice to head back to your comfortable and homely accommodation, or meet new friends at the many motels, cabins, caravan and tourist parks across the Shire, and handy to all attractions.  Paroo Shire is an RV friendly location with the full range of facilities and services to meet the needs of caravan, RV and camper van owners. 

Indigenous culture and history is embedded in Paroo Shire and helps define the people, the places and the experiences that travelers reminisce about after every visit. 

It is truly the Essence of Outback Queensland!
