Heart of the Channel Country

Discover Barcoo Shire's diverse outback landscapes and unique people of our small towns. Our site features must-see locations and must-do activities during your visit to the channel country.

Windorah is surrounded by scenic countryside, picturesque ruins and spectacular red sandhills. Cooper Creek, immortalised in poetry by Andrew "Banjo" Paterson, is one of the great natural attractions of Windorah. There are also ruins, mostly old pub sites, situated within 90km of the town.

Jundah is at the centre of sheep and cattle grazing land and is the administrative centre for the shire. The Barcoo Shire Museum is open 24 hours and there you'll find everything from antique mortuary tools to an old Royal Flying Doctor Service medicine kit.

Situated just off the Thomson Developmental Road, Stonehenge is a small town with a population of 40. You won't find any standing stones like that of England's Stonehenge, but you will find friendly people, beautiful scenery, and great camping and fishing.
