ABOUT Bollon

Bollon, a peaceful town nestled on the banks of the Wallam Creek, offers an authentic Outback experience. This friendly community welcomes you to stay a few days, relax and connect with nature and culture in a unique setting. Immerse yourself in the rich traditions of the area’s Kooma/Guwamu First Nations people by visiting Nullawokka First Nations Gallery & Tours. Cultural walks and 4WD tours led by a traditional custodian provide a fascinating glimpse into
Bollon’s Indigenous heritage. These personal tours provide a deeper appreciation of the first inhabitants and their connection to this land and offer a unique opportunity to view ancient sites and sample bush tucker. If time is short call into Nullawokka’s gallery in Bollon’s charming main street to browse a range of authentic First Nations art, bush foods and gift lines. The Bollon Heritage Centre showcases stories of early pioneers and settlers who shaped the region, including the town’s enduring connection to the sheep and shearing industry. Uncover tales of everyday life back in the early days, when the mail came via Cobb & Co coach once a week and the town boasted three hotels and one taxi! The friendly volunteers who open the Centre are always happy to chat and reminisce about Bollon and its quirky inhabitants. A peaceful stroll along the scenic 1.2 km walkway that meanders beside Wallam Creek will lead you to the town’s picturesque free caravan and camping area. Toilets and free hot showers are located on this path that is also lined with beautiful Dreamtime artwork and is illuminated by solar lights in the evening. Walter Austin Park provides a shady spot, on warmer days to sit and watch the abundant birdlife or more
energetic visitors kayaking on the creek.
