Description

Mining is at the heart of Mount Isa - this is one of the top 10 producers of copper, silver, lead and zinc. Our caravan park accommodation at Discovery Parks - Argylla (formerly known as Big4 Discovery Parks - Argylla), just over one hour's drive from Cloncurry is a great place to relax after your day of adventures. Take the Underground Mining Experience for a guided tour 15 metres underground. Spend a day (or two) at Outback at Isa, including the fascinating Riversleigh Fossil Centre. Spectacular Lake Moondarra offers swimming, boating, sailing, canoeing and excellent barramundi fishing. Held every August, the Mount Isa Rodeo is the biggest event of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere and an absolute must-see.
