Bulloo Downs Station, most commonly referred to as Bulloo Downs, is a pastoral lease that operates as a cattle station in the Shire of Bulloo, Queensland, Australia.[1] It is located on the traditional lands of the Bitjara.[2]
It is situated about 136 kilometres (85 mi) north east east of Tibooburra and 151 kilometres (94 mi) west of Hungerford in the Channel Country of south west Queensland. The property encompasses a portion of the Bulloo River and its floodplains. The property adjoins Naryilco Station.[3]
The property occupies an area of 10,700 square kilometres (4,131 sq mi) and in 2010 was owned by the Gibson family.[4] Mick and Marie Gibson acquired Bulloo Downs in 2004 paying A$20 million for the property following the breakup of the Stanbroke Pastoral Company by Peter Menegazzo.[5]
