OUR TOWN

The most isolated town in the state, Tibooburra has a raw, frontier flavour that conjures up its pioneering past. Tibooburra is also the gateway to Corner Country, with travelers coming through all year round, looking to experience this remarkable part of Outback NSW.

For many thousands of years this region has been home to the Wangkumara and Maljangapa Aboriginal people, whose middens, quarries, campsites, ceremonial sites and tool workshops are scattered throughout the area. 

​

The 335km Broken Hill to Tibooburra road is about 80% sealed and midway provides an emergency landing strip for the RFDS. There are many local groups to be involved with, including the CWA, Fire Brigade, SES, Sports Club Committee and local Primary School P&C. A village committee & progress association oversee the water supply, public facilities and other important services to the town.

OUR HEALTH CARE SERVICES

The Tibooburra Health Service provides a 24/7 emergency stabilisation, evacuation service and primary health care. The Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) provides 24/7 emergency assistance for medical emergencies and a GP clinic one day a week where allied health workers also offer their services on a rotating roster.

Our Health Service Manager leads a team of two staff. She has put together some information about this lovely town. Please see our Welcome to Tibooburra booklet for your information.
