Longreach is located 1177 km north-west of Brisbane via Toowoomba and Roma. It is 686 km west of Rockhampton and 191 metres above sea level

Longreach is the largest town in central Queensland and, as such, is an important rural service centre for one of the state's most prosperous wool and beef areas. Located on the Tropic of Capricorn it services an ever-growing tourism industry which has been driven by the success of the Australian Stockman's Hall of Fame and the Qantas Founders Outback Museum

Henry ('Harry') Redford was an explorer and a cattle thief. In 1870 he stole about 1000 cattle and drove them more than 1200kms across Queensland and South Australia. It was an amazing feat that showed great skill and endurance, and turned Henry Redford into an outback legend.

Join our scenic flight to Starlight’s Lookout.  Legend has it that this lookout was used by notorious cattle thief, Harry Redford (also known as Captain Starlight) to survey the surrounding plains while stolen cattle were being rounded up. Walk to the top for a spectacular view of the open plains below and a complimentary beverage*.
