Small townships like Barcaldine, Aramac and Muttaburra dot the Mitchell grass plains, and a sense of pioneering history persists beneath the great western skies. Visitors learn about the early labour movement under the Tree of Knowledge in Barcaldine and can wander through the peaceful Muttaburra Fossil Interpretation Centre. Locals quietly treasure stargazing from isolated paddocks far from city lights and picnicking beside the little‑known waterholes along the Alice River.
