Fascinating museum packed full of artefacts from the Australian gold rush at Hill End, along with objects of intrigue from the time, all enhanced by eccentric and personal notes from the owner. We came on a quiet day and Malcolm opened specially for us, telling us plenty about Hill End at its height and the main players. We couldn't have asked for more. There is also a mine, which we didn't visit owing to the weather.

Merlins Lookout

Reviewed By AfricaEddie - Sydney, Australia

A dirt road drive takes you to a lookout named after the photographer who has left the history of Sofala. The views show the amazing depths plumbed by miners to over 200m in depth.

Golden Gully

Reviewed By allenjc2017

I found walking through the gully created by the erosion caused by the mining for gold very exhilarating with many photographic opportunities.
