About Quilpie Shire Community Directory

The Quilpie Community Directory serves the Quilpie Shire in south‑west Queensland, a vast area of mulga and channel country famous for opal mining and wool growing. Centred on the town of Quilpie and including the townships of Eromanga, Adavale and Toompine, the shire also attracts tourists along the Natural Sciences Loop. The directory lists hospitals, medical centres, schools, childcare, community clubs, arts groups, sporting associations, volunteer organisations and council services, making it easier for residents and travellers to find support and participate in community life.

Find Local & Visiting Services in Quilpie Shire

Health, emergency and welfare services in the Quilpie area include small health clinics, visiting doctors and specialists, crisis and counselling hotlines, accommodation support and welfare assistance programmes. The directory also lists community clubs and interest groups, arts and creative projects, sports and recreation clubs, youth programmes, cultural and migrant services, environmental groups and religious or philosophical organisations, alongside education, training and employment services. Because this shire is remote, many specialist services such as allied health care, legal assistance and disability or youth support are delivered by visiting providers or regional outreach, while local community organisations and volunteers offer daily support and cultural activities.

Quilpie Region

Located in the heart of the Channel Country, Quilpie Shire includes the towns of Quilpie and Eromanga and is famed for boulder opals and oil. Mulga plains, jump‑ups and wide floodplains stretch to the horizon, and the night skies dazzle with stars. Locals take visitors up Baldy Top Lookout for a 360‑degree panorama at sunset and enjoy fossicking for opal at designated fields just outside town, where patient diggers might uncover a colourful gem.

Quilpie Shire Council has an approximate area of 67,000 km².

It is within the state electorate of Warrego.
