Georgetown

Georgetown combines the isolation of the Gulf Savannah with the practical role of an outback service town in a way that reflects its position on the Etheridge River in inland Queensland. The settlement grew with the Etheridge goldfields in the late 19th century, and mining remains central to its local story. At the Ted Elliott Mineral Collection, visitors can encounter minerals and fossils that speak to the region’s geological character. Georgetown also lies on the Savannah Way, a long-distance route linking northern Queensland’s tropical coast with the Northern Territory.
