TASTE CONDAMINE
Taste Condamine T
he township of Condamine is located south of Miles on the meandering Condamine River. Surrounding Condamine are many feedlots and a freshwater fish farm, as well as arguably the region’s top camping location, Caliguel Lagoon. You are in the heart of cattle country here and Condamine is famous for the invention of the Condamine or Bullfrog Bell. Designed to be hung from the necks of working bullocks, the bells ensured the stockmen were able to locate their
cattle when left to roam and graze. Stockmen were even able to determine the distance of a bullock by the sound of its bell. Visitors can learn more of this history when they stop to read the inscription on the side of the large replica bell in Bell Park. Catching a “Cod on the Condamine” is also a popular activity for visitors and locals alike, followed by a coldie at the Condamine Hotel where you can talk about the one that got away!
