About the next adventure
2021 Outback Getaway - "Twisting to The Tubes"
Outback Getaway (OBG) 2021 will be operate from Toowoomba on Saturday, 7 August 2019 and complete at Charleville on Saturday 14 August 2021. The Departure Dinner is being held on Friday, 6 August 2021, at the Toowoomba Golf Club
Planning for our 13th OBG in 2021 is almost complete and over 8 days will explore the "roads less travelled" to the Undara Volcanic National Park via Taroom, Ruby Vale, Ravenswood and Greenvale. After the "Tubes" we overnight at Einasleigh, ten to Hughenden and continue the southerly direction via Barcaldine to finish at Charleville.
We’ll be travelling through some true frontier country as we experience the heritage, stories, places, landscapes and wildlife that blend together to create an authentic old-world Queensland adventure. See parts of Queensland as you have never seen it before.
A completely catered Tag along Tour for high clearance 4WD / AWD vehicles, a project of The Rotary Club of Toowoomba East Inc.
