The Corner Country of outback New South Wales lies to the north of Broken Hill.       

It follows the rugged Barrier Ranges towards Tibooburra, sweeps west across the Mundi Mundi Plain and merges with the sand dunes of the Simpson-Strzelecki Dunefields.  Sturt National Park surrounds Tibooburra to the north and west, Milparinka just a bit to the south, and in the east lies Mutawintji.

 

Big skies, red dirt, rugged hills and creeks and with all the magic of  the outback.

 

Its an area with an amazing heritage: Sturt's exploration, Burke and Wills, gold mining and the the golden fleece to name just a few aspects of local history.

 

Across the Corner Country are trails ready to be explored, and locals on stations and in the townships ready to make your trip something to remember.  Explore Corner Country soon.  There is such as lot to see, and its well worth the visit.
