Boggabilla is located at the intersection of the Bruxner and Newell Highways, 7km south of QLD twin town, Goondiwindi. Very little on offer for tourists as nearby Goondiwindi provides the commercial centre for the greater region (both NSW and QLD) although the town has the essentials for the local community. Note for motorists: the Shell 1km south of Boggabilla is likely to offer cheaper fuel than in Goondiwindi despite being in NSW.
