Explore Outback Queensland
West of Winton – there’s no bus – it’s 366 sealed kilometres to BOULIA along one of the most beautiful and surprisingly varied stretches of scenery in Queensland’s Outback, alternating between endless plains, lush creeks and blood-red hills. Boulia is best known for its enigmatic Min Min Light, an eerie, unexplained car-headlamp-like light reputedly seen in the bush at night.
Families flock to Boulia for the July camel races; camping at the rodeo grounds is free up to one week beforehand and during the three-day event, which also features live bands.

If you miss the real thing (locals maintain “you don’t go looking for it, it comes looking for you”), drop in to the Min Min Encounter Centre, a 45-minute sound-and-light show where you’re directed through a series of rooms to meet automated characters depicting real-life locals and hear about their close personal encounters with the lights.
