An outback city in every sense, Broken Hill is a living, breathing time capsule set amid a sprawling desert landscape. A place of red rocky earth, huge skies, and a fascinating and internationally significant history. It is, after all, Australia’s first heritage-listed city.
It is located near the border with South Australia on the crossing of the Barrier Highway and the Silver City Highway in the Barrier Range. The closest major city is Adelaide, the capital of South Australia, which is more than 500km to the southwest.
