Broken Hill Travel Guide
New South Wales, Australia
Broken Hill is a small inland city in New South Wales, Australia, with a population of 18,430. It sits well away from the coast in the state’s outback, so it is better suited to an inland visit than a beach break.
Travellers arriving by air use Broken Hill Airport, which serves the city. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, and the surrounding landscape is inland rather than coastal.
