The Bulloo Shire covers a vast area of Outback Australia in an area traditionally known as "The Forgotten Corner".
Bulloo Shire is one of the most sparsely populated regions of Australia.
Approximately 650 people live in 74,000 square kilometres. The desert landscape can be both desolate and breathtakingly beautiful
There is extraordinary diversity from brilliant blue waters of the salt lake Wyara in Currawinya National Park to the red sand hills edging the Cooper Creek flood plain in the far west
Thargomindah is the main town with a population of around 250. There are two other towns - Hungerford on the Qld/NSW border and Noccundra, 140 km west of Thargomindah. The tiny outposts of Cameron Corner where the borders of Queensland, NSW and SA meet is the most isolated community in the Shire. |
