the outback
Wild and wide open - where spaces as far as the eye can see astound even the most fervent traveller. Spectacular colours and dramatic landscapes assaults the senses. And a resilient people - whose communities are as characteristic as their lifestyle and heritage.

Go to a remote cattle station and join a jackaroo or jillaroo as they muster cattle (even by helicopter), crack their whips or ride along the wide open expanses. Stay at a sheep station and watch as the sheep are sheered or head out in a 4WD and drive until you reach the neighbors hundreds of Ks (kilometers) away. Head to the pub- the epicentre of Outback life. Mateship thrives and its here where the locals gather to share their stories, passions, have a bit of fun, and perhaps find romance.
