Welcome to Cobar Shire Council |
|
Cobar Shire is situated in the centre of New South Wales at the crossroads of the Barrier Highway and the Kidman Way and has excellent road, rail and air links to most of Australia's capital cities. With an area of 44,065 km squared, the Shire is almost the same size as the whole of Tasmania. It is home to 7,000 people, the majority of whom - 5,500 - live in the town of Cobar. The Shire's prosperity is built around the thriving mining - copper, lead, silver, zinc, gold - and pastoral industries, which are strongly supported by a wide range of attractions and activities, that make it a major tourist destination.
