Longreach is good.
I don't know if you know, but the Stockman's Hall of Fame gives you a free return pass if you want to spend more time there.
If you like to read get a set of the 'Sir Hudson Fysh' trilogy. Incredible info about the man and Qantas.Available at the Qantas Founders Museum bookshop.
There is also a very good 'Australian' bookshop at the Stockman's Hall of Fame.
Enjoy your trip.....it may be pretty cool out there too.
