Australia’s Golden Outback

Western Australia’s Golden Outback is a vast and surprisingly diverse region of outback Australia. Covering 54 per cent of Western Australia, it stretches from the rugged red earth of Mt Augustus in the north of the Gascoyne-Murchison region to the sweeping snow-white beaches of Esperance and the Fitzgerald Coast.

At the very heart of Western Australia’s Golden Outback lies the modern mining hub of Kalgoorlie and the Goldfields, offering fascinating insights into the history and heritage of the wild gold rush days. And in the Wheatbelt to the west, picturesque rolling farmland is dotted with colourful rural townships, and home to the famous Wave Rock.
