On the second day of The Outback Trail we find ourselves in charming Nindigully— affectionately dubbed "The Gully" by locals. 

Our journey brings us to the most famous and respected institution in town... The Nindigully Pub!

With roots dating back to 1864, The Nindigully Pub is revered as one of Queensland's oldest and continually licensed pubs. 

Mosey on down to The Gully Sessions for a relaxed afternoon of classic pub grub and live country music.

Our next stop invites you and your fellow trail-goers to Charlotte Plains, a cherished family-owned and operated sheep station with a century-long legacy. Feel the warmth of a heartfelt welcome from owner Robyn Russell and her family as we gather for an intimate storytelling experience at Ballads and Bush Yarns. Here, we'll celebrate the spirited outback tales that define the heart and soul of Charlotte Plains.

On the eighth day of our epic journey we trot into Charleville for the inaugural Outback Sounds— a one-day, family-friendly music festival proudly reigning as the pinnacle event of The Outback Trail. 

Outback Sounds will transform the Charleville Showgrounds into an outback oasis, where the spirit of music, arts, food and community bursts to life. 

Explore local market stalls between sets and savor delicious eats from food stalls scattered across the site. Outback Sounds is more than a festival; it's a vibrant celebration of music, creativity, and community spirit against the captivating outback backdrop.
