Camooweal is located close to the Northern Territory Border and is a popular place to stop when heading west. It is thought of as a suburb of Mount Isa, and the Barkly Highway between these two places is considered to be the longest main street in the world. This is a very small town and is close to Camooweal Caves National Park which has a number of rare sink holes.
Not far from the centre of town is Drovers Camp Shed and Information Centre. We have been told that this is well worth a visit to learn about the history of the area and droving in the outback. We will definietly call into the Drovers Camp Shed on our next through outback Queensland.
