Burke and Wills

Burke and Wills sits at a road junction in Queensland’s Gulf Country, where open savanna stretches south of the Gulf of Carpentaria. This small outback stop lies on routes used to cross a vast, sparsely settled part of northern Australia, shaped by long dry seasons and a short, intense wet season. Its name recalls the 1860–61 expedition led by Robert O’Hara Burke and William John Wills, a defining episode in Australia’s exploration history.
