Visit Broken Hill to tour the mines and stay for the authentic feel of an outback settlement. Australia's longest-lived mining city was once a series of hills that are long gone, mined away for silver ore. The town, which still relies on mining, grew to the largest urban area in New South Wales. While tourism is growing, sheep herding is the dominant industry with sheep far outnumbering people. This gives the city a mix of urbanism with an outback attitude imbued with pioneering spirit. Take a look at our Australia trip planner to refine the details of your trip to Broken Hill.
