You may be surprised to learn that Richmond was once the heart of a vast inland sea, filled with prehistoric marine life. You can see scores of marine fossils from 100 million years ago at the ‘must see’ Kronosaurus Korner or try finding your own fossil at one of Richmond’s free fossil hunting sites. Spanning the full length of Goldring Street, the walk includes sites of the Cordial Factory, Newspaper Printers and Open Air Theatre. A recent addition to the walk is the Cambridge Downs Heritage Display Centre, a replica of the original 1860’s homestead – there’s a good story to tell there! Choose from a good selection of lunch options in town before hitting the road west to Julia Creek, home to the endangered Julia Creek Dunnart. Make sure you arrive in time to see the feeding of cheeky resident dunnarts, Donald and Duncan at 3pm in the Julia Creek Information Centre 'At the Creek'. A new addition to the centre is ‘Beneath the Creek' which explores the underground features that have shaped the regions past through an interactive floor, touch screens and big screen films which provide a detailed insight into life in the McKinlay Shire.
