A WORD ABOUT OUR WATER!
Blackall water comes from an artesian bore, 804 metres below the ground. We do not have a hot water system, therefore you may need to leave your hot water running for some time before it
becomes very hot.
Due to the bore water, you may experience a rather odd smell when using the hot water. This is the mineral content of the water, but it has been scientifically tested to be perfectly clean and a lot purer than other water supplies. For drinking purposes, please use the cold tap. The water has been cooled and settled to eliminate the smell.
There is much to see and do in this friendly outback town.
Explorer Thomas Mitchell reached this area in 1846 and the town is named after Sir Samuel Blackall, Queensland's second Governor.
Blackall was first settled in 1864 and in 1868 it was surveyed, gazetted and named after Samuel Wensley Blackall, then-governor of Queensland. The town is in the heart of the state's merino sheep breeding area and has the last intact example of a steam-powered wool washing plant, with a working shearing shed attached.
Blackall is a town rich in history and is the perfect base to explore Central Western Queensland. Whether you are caravanning, camping, staying in motels or hotels, Blackall can cater to your needs.
