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.

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.
