Broken Hill is an isolated mining town surrounded by semi-desert which has served as the back drop for shooting numerous movies, television programs, video-clips and commercials. It is also a major base for both the Royal Flying Doctor Service of Australia and School of the Air.

Broken Hill and the surrounding area have many natural and man-made attractions on offer for the tourist. These include mining operations (some open to the public), a visitor's centre and lookout on top of the original Line of Lode mine, historic buildings, town history walking trails, many resident artists and galleries, the Sculpture Symposium, COBB & Co coach & wagon rides, Silverton Camel Farm, Stephen's Creek, Silver City Mint, several quarries, lakes, the Mundi-Mundi plains, and terrific sunsets.

Our local businesses are many and varied so if you need to find anything look at our Broken Hill Business Directory.
