Outback Camel Racing Takes Off | Brisbane News
Description
Camel racing just hit the outback in style as The Outback Camel Trail kicked off in Jundah, kicking off a month-long Desert Champions Way designed to revitalize remote towns with tourism. Even first-timers like Jake Callaghan claimed victory, proving it’s not just for pros. With races heading to Bedourie, Boulia (home to Australia’s longest camel race), and Winton, volunteers battled rain to prep tracks while jockeys guide camels by ear—yes, really—pushing speeds up to 45 kph. It’s wild, it’s weird, and it’s bringing life to sleepy outback communities—one dusty race at a time.
