An interesting spot to stop and see the open cut gold mine. A free site with a couple of walks. We did the one to the first lookout which was only a very short distance maybe 5 minute walk. There was a ramp that would be suitable for wheelchairs/strollers. You would need to go back the same way as there are stairs continuing on around the circuit. Toilets available also.

Very informative & interesting mine so close to town. We did the 45min walk, which has some information boards & viewing platforms of the various mines. Worth the easy stroll.

This attraction is free. There's enough parking as it wasn't very busy and the parking available is suitable for caravans (a few vans at least).

There's a couple of walks to do and several lookout points. Some of the track includes an include. It's a gravel surface track and there are lots of ants around so be careful where you stop for photos. We ended up with dozens of large ants walking all over our shoes as we didn't look down when taking our first photo.

I think it's worth having a look if you're interested in this type of thing or you happen to be passing by and it's convenient to stop. I wouldn't go out of my way again to visit it though.

Loved the bush walks and round - trail by the open cut gold mine. Intriguing Aussie history.

Five (5) open cut mines. Free entry for self guided tours. At your own pace.

Beautiful views of regional NSW and Central Tableland’s from the top.

I really enjoyed my time at the mine, so much history to read about and a fantastic walk around the mining area. I didn’t realise how many deep open cut mines there were!
You can see the early workings by individuals around the hill.
There’s plenty of parking, toilets and water.
