Georgetown to Cobbold Gorge

Townsville, Queensland

Day 11: Leaving Georgetown, travel east to Forsayth, originally known as Finnegan’s Camp, then Charleston and finally Forsayth. This part of the Etheridge Goldfield has plenty of stories to tell. The area was known as the ‘Poor Man’s Goldfield’, as a prospector did not need expensive equipment to search for gold. Your destination today is something truly special. Deep in the heart of the Gulf Savannah region is the hidden outback oasis of Cobbold Gorge. Located on the huge Robin Hood Cattle Station, Cobbold Gorge offers an impressive selection of facilities to include comfortable accommodation, an infinity swimming pool, fully licensed bar/restaurant, and a full program of tours and activities.
