Situated on the famous Savannah Way, a travel route from Cairns to Broome, Mount Surprise sits on the edge of an immense lava flow formed by an ancient volcano to the south east.
Renowned as an area for fossicking - producing vast quantities of topaz, quartz, garnet and aquamarine - the surrounding country is flat, wooded savannah grasslands, with isolated hills.
The region offers a diverse outback experience, and local tour operators offer nature based tours incorporating cattle stations, gem fields, the Savannahlander train and the Undara Lava Tubes.
Go fossicking and find topaz, quartz, spinel, garnet, caringorn and aquarmarine; stop by the famous Tallaroo Hot Mineral Springs; visit the Gem Den to pick up some souvenirs; or take in the Undara Lava Tubes - the world's largest lava tubes.Photos
