Taroom 

Taroom Shire is renowned for high quality beef cattle, prime hard wheat, other grain crops and forestry products. The Shire encompasses the townships of Taroom and Wandoan and promotes three exciting self-drive tours to explore the region. These include taking in the breathtaking beauty of Isla Gorge, which abounds with native flora, excellent for bushwalking. The native animals and the general tranquillity add to the sense of peacefulness that ensures a visit to the Gorge will be a truly memorable experience.

Taroom Shire offers visitors accommodation, supermarkets, well-stocked shops, and is an ideal fuel stop. Taroom and Wandoan offer high quality bore water, first-class swimming pools, scenic 18-hole golf links, year-round bowls, tennis, horse racing/polocrosse and excellent showgrounds which stage agricultural shows and canpdrafting. Visitors always enjoy fishing on the Dawson River. Both towns provide historical/heritage centres open by arrangement.
