Start your Goldfields tour at the spot where it all began, the historic Golden Mile in the town of Boulder. Wander along Burt Street and admire architectural reminders of Boulder's gold rush heritage. Visit the Miners Monument, Goldfields War Museum and the Town Hall, which houses the Goatcher Curtain. Or head for the Loopline Railway Station and tour the Golden Mile in the old train that once carried hundreds of miners to work. Take a scenic flight or pull on a hard hat for a mind-blowing tour of one of the world's largest open cut mines – the Super Pit. Part of the historic Golden Mile, the modern-day pit is a colossal 3.5 kilometres long and 1.5 kilometres wide, producing 900,000 ounces of gold each year. For the best sunset views of Australia’s largest outback town, head up to Mount Charlotte in the late afternoon.
