Collect a town map and bird list from the Cunnamulla Visitor Information Centre. Don’t forget to have your picture taken with the magnificent Cunnamulla Fella statue while you are in town. The larger than life statue is a tribute to the Aussie larrikin stockman. Before departing to explore, make sure you spend the time going through the centre, exploring the rich history of the area in the museum and view the artistic brilliance of the current collection in the art gallery. 

The Artesian Time Tunnel, also in the Centre, incorporates an old mine lift and takes travellers back in time 100 million years, deep into the middle of ancient sandstone rocks that form part of the Artesian Basin.

Artesian water is the lifeblood of outback towns and its importance is demonstrated in the time tunnel experience as well as a 30-minute theatre presentation. Here you will discover the home of ancient animals and Australia’s largest dinosaurs that roamed the Eromanga Inland Sea. You will also experience an old opal mine and the early days in the opal fields.
