Sandstone to Yalgoo

Discover the enormous lengths gold prospectors went to in their search for gold in the 1890s, with a visit to Jokers Tunnel in Yalgoo. Examine the tunnel which has been carved through a massive unyielding rock and imagine the gruelling work involved in completing such a feat with the basic equipment available back then. Explore the exquisite flora around Joker's Tunnel in full bloom between July and September. Walk along trails in this magnificent bushland to discover native animals such as kangaroos, emus and wedge-tailed eagles. Accommodation options: Station stays, outback pub, caravan park, camping
