DESCRIPTION
Outback Pioneers in Longreach is the only place in Australia where you can gallop in a Cobb and Co stagecoach along an old mail route through the bush.
Hear the pounding hooves of the magnificent horses on the outback dirt road. Hear the rattle and creak of the coach. Hold on to your hats for as we head through the bush on the original Longreach-Windorah mail route! It’s exhilarating. It’s entertaining. It’s informative. And it’s the closest you can get to feeling what it would have been like in the pioneer past.
After the 45 minute stagecoach ride and photos, slow down with a traditional smoko (the original Aussie tea break), a classic Australian movie in retro cinema seats and our Old Time Tent Show, which has fun for all the family in a tribute to the old travelling shows.
