Welcome to this unique part of Outback Queensland

Boomerang waterhole 40 kilometres west of Yaraka

The small township of Yaraka is nestled between Mesa Hills with the backdrop being the Yang Yang Ranges that offer unique and spectacular picture post card scenery a photographer’s delight. The gem that Yaraka can offer to visitors is the nearby Mt Slowcombe with a tar sealed road winding its way to the top making it easily accessible even for cars. The 360 degree views from the top of this mesa hill leave every visitor shaking their heads in disbelief that so few people have discovered this spectacular outback gem which has been compared to being Queensland’s equivalent of the Northern Territory’s Kakadu. Not only does Mt Slowcombe offer awesome views it also has an electric BBQ and covered seating and toilet facilities to enhance the experience!
