Isisford is in outer Barcoo country - the land described by Australian poet Banjo Paterson as a place "never crossed 'cept by folk that are lost".

But nowadays people who visit aren't lost - they're looking for the genuine "inner Australia" experience. Here, they can see Isis Downs' great semi-circular shearing shed, or visit the Oma stockyards, used by Australia's most famous cattle duffer.

There are many other sites to discover as well. This is truly a land where Australia's pioneering spirit can still be felt. While in town, visit the Outer Barcoo Interpretation Centre where you will see everything from today's arts and crafts to a crocodile fossil which is unique in the world.
