Located on the picturesque creek of the same name, Julia Creek is a small town with a big heart to match its big sunsets. Get to know the area at the Visitor Information Centre, known as ‘At The Creek’.

Situated on the main street and housed in historic fettler’s cottages, this award-winning Centre is the perfect place to discover the region’s exciting and colourful history. ‘Beneath The Creek’, part of the Visitor Information Centre, allows you to see life, both past and present, within the McKinlay Shire through different eyes via the interactive displays and videos.

Have you ever seen a Dunnart, or a fat-tailed Dunnart to be precise? Never heard of it? Visit the Dunnart display at the Julia Creek Visitor Centre and learn about these cheeky, energetic little creatures, and even watch their daily feeding shows. The Julia Creek Dunnart is listed as critically endangered, with the Centre part of a successful re-establishment program.

Whilst visiting, you can also take part in a virtual reality cattle muster. Don a headset and headphones, relax and immerse yourself into being on the back of a dirt bike, inside a chopper, or sitting on the rails of a cattle yard, all in air-conditioned comfort!
