Charleville

Brisbane City, Queensland

Do you want to know a secret? During WWII the Charleville Airfield was a Top Secret Base for the USAAF. Locals were sworn to secrecy about the 3500 American airmen and ground crews who took over this western Queensland airfield in 1942. Find out much more and take a peek at the newly uncovered secret sites on a 1.5 hour guided tag-a-long tour. Head into town to the historic Hotel Corones for the Stories and Scones tour. The hotel was completed in 1929 during Charleville’s wool boom. With its jazz hall, embossed plaster ceilings and en suite bathrooms it’s not hard to imagine why it was the hotel of choice for graziers, wool-buyers and the odd celebrity! Find out why you should join the Easter ‘bilbies not bunnies’ campaign on a visit to the Bilby Experience. The work carried out by volunteers to save the Bilby from extinction is nothing short of inspirational. Be prepared to be impressed on a guided tour of the facility with an experienced Bilby Keeper.
