Broken Hill Heritage Walk Tour

Expect to stop in front of a number of historic façades, such as the 1905 Trades Hall, the red-brick Post Office, and the iconic Palace Hotel, which ironically began life as an alcohol-free coffee house, commissioned by the temperance movement in 1889.

Pass down streets named after metals, minerals and compounds, giving you a flavour of how the city and its distinctive culture developed on the back of the mining boom. You'll also learn from the knowledgeable guides how the city's past and present are deeply entwined.

Tours start at the Broken Hill Visitor Information Centre; please arrive 15 minutes early. While there's no set fee, donations are appreciated.

Bookings are essential, so please contact the Broken Hill Visitor Information Centre to secure a spot.
