Blackall–Tambo Region Overview
This pastoral region in central‑west Queensland centres on the friendly towns of Blackall and Tambo, linked by long stretches of highway and merino sheep country. The area has a long wool history and still hosts shearing sheds and historic homesteads, while artesian bores feed public baths and keep gardens green. Two cherished experiences draw visitors and locals alike: touring the historic Blackall Woolscour to learn how wool was processed in the early 1900s, and visiting the Tambo Teddies workshop where soft toys are still handmade from local fleece.
Council has an approximate area of 31,000 km².
