Remote outback gateway serving southwest Queensland's Channel Country.

Location
Bedourie, Australia
Bedourie Airport is a small regional airport serving Bedourie, the administrative centre of the Diamantina Shire in outback Queensland, Australia. Located in one of the most remote and sparsely populated regions of the country, the airport provides a vital transport link for residents, station workers, and visitors to the Channel Country. The airport operates with a single unsealed or gravel runway and handles light general aviation and regional charter traffic. It plays an important role in supporting the local pastoral industry, emergency medical services, and the Royal Flying Doctor Service, which relies on outback airstrips like Bedourie to access remote communities. Bedourie itself is a small outback town with a population of only a few hundred people, and the airport reflects the modest scale of the community it serves. Despite its size, the facility is essential infrastructure in a region where road distances to major centres are vast.

Getting to & from
