Little Topar is a village on the Barrier Highway in Western New South Wales, between Broken Hill and Wilcannia, New South Wales.

The village is in the Tandora County.^[2]

The locality, which consisted of little more than a hotel and now a roadhouse, is named after Topar, a young Indigenous Australian man who guided Charles Sturt into the Barrier Ranges in 1844.^[3]
