Eromanga is a hidden gem with a lot to offer! Known as Australia’s furthest town from the sea, it’s also home to some of the country’s most exciting dinosaur discoveries. At the award-winning Eromanga Natural History Museum, you can dive into the world of ancient dinosaurs and megafauna from the Cretaceous period. But there’s more — Eromanga is part of the Cooper-Eromanga basin, Australia’s most prolific oil and gas region, where the IOR Refinery processes over 1,200 barrels of crude oil a day. Don’t miss the historic Eromanga Royal Hotel, a local icon since 1895. It’s only 106 km west of Quilpie, and well worth the trip!
