Amazing depiction of local kids by renowned artist Guido van Helten. Easy to see from the road to get pics. Located close to the heart of Cunnamulla township and easy to spot.

Matilda Highway

The Matilda Way is one road that most definitely leads to adventure, and a different one each day. The fully sealed 1812 kilometre highway stretches from the New South Wales border all the way to the Gulf of Carpentaria, from Cunnamulla to Karumba. Traversing the 'real outback' the route is filled with friendly characters, unique attractions and unspoiled natural sites. Four days is a comfortable drive, depending on how long you stay in each town. The road itself is fully sealed although, as you'll be sharing it with huge road trains and a selection of stock and native animals, it pays to be wary and understand outback road courtesy. When a truck is approaching, the best and most polite approach is to pull off onto the side of the road and wait for the truck to pass. You'll protect your vehicle from rock damage and the truckies will thank you for it. As you're travelling, check the byways along the route; there are plenty of side-trips that add to the overall outback experience.

If you travel the Matilda Highway you are going to exoerience the true outback of OZ. In the present drought you will be confronted by dead animals along the roadside and dry arid country. BUT. When the rains come again and the drought is broken, which has happened since time for millions of years, this area becomes a 'land of plenty' with much happiness and prosperity. Don't let the scaremongers tell you that it will never rain again!

Cunnamulla Bushlands

Cunnamulla Bushlands features different environments from the south west Queensland area. If you're short on time, or need to stretch your legs after the long drive to Cunnamulla, then the Bushlands are a wonderful place to spend an hour. Take a walk along the wheelchair friendly paths and read the informative boards.

A true outback experience.. A beautiful Billabong surrounded by native trees and shrubbery with an array of native bird life and the occassional kangaroo or emu. It will be even better when the drought ends and things return to normal.
