Isisford is a rural town in Queensland's central west. Situated on the Barcoo River, the town is 100 km south-west of Longreach.
We drove to Isisford from Blackall - the road is two lanes wide but very bumpy. The car and van were tossed all over the place - the scenery was very pleasant with lots of flowers along the side of the road after the rain. The road from Isisford to Ilfracombe (near Longreach) is a single width road which was in very good condition. Plenty of space to pull off the road if a vehicle was coming in the opposite direction.
Isisford has a large camping area beside the river just over the bridge as you enter town. Along the main street is a relatively new building housing a coffee shop, café and museum with an replica of the Isisfordia Duncani – an ancestor of all the worlds crocodilians that lived about 98 million years ago.
The Visitor Information Centre is located within the local council building near the library. Behind this building are public toilets in the local park with a variety of children’s play equipment. Lovely shade trees and picnic tables to enjoy lunch.
