About this site

The Star of the West Goldmine was once one of Upper Goulburn’s richest goldmines and is now a fantastic side trip for anyone touring the region by 4WD.

A 1.7km steep 4WD track, off the Mansfield-Woods Point Road, leads to this day visitor area. Here you can stop for lunch and stretch your legs on the 1.6km walk down to the historic goldfield with evidence of its mining past visible along the trail.

The 4WD track to the visitor area can be walked if it's not suitable for your vehicle to drive down.
