The
Combo Waterhole, though picturesque, doesn’t seem to be particularly appealing, as one of a number of semi-permanent billabongs along the Diamantina River south-east of
Kynuna, it’s part of the
Combo Waterhole Conservation
Park, and is a wildlife refuge. However, it’s said to be the setting for Australia’s
unofficial national anthem, Waltzing Matilda. Written by A.B. "Banjo" Patterson in 1895 while visiting
Dagworth Station in western Queensland ,Approximately 54klm to the turn off toward
Winton from
Kynuna.
