Booligal, a charming rural town, offers a glimpse into the heart of the Australian outback. Known for its connection to Banjo Paterson's famous poem ‘Hay, Hell and Booligal’, the town is a popular destination for travellers seeking a peaceful escape. It is located on the Cobb Highway, on the Lachlan River north of Hay. Booligal is a part of Hay Shire local government area.

The local community enjoys a range of recreational activities, including cricket and yoga, while the annual Sheep Races bring excitement to the town.

Booligal is described by “Aussie Towns” as ‘a pub, a few houses, a playing field and a memorial to explorer John Oxley’, which doesn’t quite describe the relaxing feeling you get when staying.

Whether you’re deciding to pitch a tent, park the van or stay the night, Booligal is the escape that anyone can enjoy. The Booligal Hotel provides travellers with meals, ice cold drinks, postal agency, groceries and accommodation.
