 Outback
& Goldfields -
Western Australia
The Outback: deserts like the Gibson and the Great Victoria;
dusty plains, worn down mountains and shimmering salt lakes;
boundless horizons, clear skies; safaris, four wheel drive
adventures, travelling the old stock routes. The southern
coast: surfing, island eco-tours, swimming, windsurfing,
diving. The goldfields: thriving Kalgoorlie-Boulder,
Coolgardie, pan for gold, explore the mines.
Tramp the Darling Ranges - alive with native wildlife, see
Wave Rock and the fields of wildflowers in the spring, try
the seafood in Esperance, visit an old 'goldrush' mine,
drive the tough Canning Stock Route or the Gunbarrel
Highway, discover the heritage museums, see where the 'Eldorado
Nugget', weighing 55kg, was found in 1951 at Coolgardie,
enjoy a farmstay, enjoy Western Australia. |
