Barcaldine Airport QLD

The Barcaldine Airport in QLD is located in Myall Street. The airport is a registered public transport facility, Qantaslink currently services the Shire with 3 flights per week. The Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) also services the local community on a call out basis.

Barcaldine has an interesting and famous history.  The name Barcaldine originates from the Oban region in Scotland and is pronounced bar-call-din.

Barcaldine is home to the Tree of Knowledge, the reputed birth place of the labour movement in Australia.  The Tree grew outside the Railway Station for about 180 years until 2006 when sadly, it was poisoned by an unknown culprit.  The famous tree has been preserved and placed under an award winning structure that gives the illusion of a canopy over the Tree.  The best view of the Tree and the memorial is at night when it is beautifully lit by special lighting.  A visit at night will be a highlight of your trip.
