Yalgoo



Yalgoo is another of those towns which once, during the gold mining days, had 5 pubs and a thriving community but now it’s nearly deserted, one shop and not much else. Surprisingly the caravan park was very pleasant and the sort of place that attracts ex farmers looking for somewhere quiet to spend a few days. Our next door neighbours were from down south, having a break and hoping to find an alluvial nugget, so far without success. The view from the nearby lookout gives an idea of the sense of isolation.
