Out Fact

More likely the word ‘Buckanbe’ comes from a derivation of the local aboriginal word in the Barkindji language, “Balkinbie” which means ’black hair’. Further research has revealed that the aboriginal word “Bukkandi” ( used in NSW and pronounced Buckandee) meant ‘native cat’.

Your Hosts

There's 40,000 hectares of Outback Australia that Colin Middleton likes to call home - a place called Old Buckanbe Station.

The Aussie spirit is alive and well in the Outback! Even as a long drought rakes the land, Colin remains committed to Buckanbe Station and the nearby community of Tilpa.

Colin and his mates would love to see you during you Outback adventure, and give you a tour of historical Buckanbe Station and some of the incredible facts it contains from early settlement.
