See
Lizard Racing TrackOnce a year Eulo hosts the lizard races. At other times of year you can see the track and imagine what it would be like with 5000 people in the town watching the races.
Mud SpringsThe mud springs are areas of raised and soft mud where water can flow from the Great Artesian Basin. The mud springs are not very muddy, and there is no water flowing. Interesting local landscape though, and if you have made it this far, you may as well go and visit them.
Do
Swim in the Paroo RiverDepending on water flow (not too much, not too little) you can swim in the Paroo River. A small weir has been built just by the road bridge. A better swimming hole on the Paroo is available to the south at Caiwarro in the Currawinya National Park.
Mud BathThe date farm will fill a cast iron bath up with water, and give you a variety of mud to put in it. The Paroo river just down the road allows you to do the same thing free of charge (albeit it considerably colder and with fish).
