Things Worth Doing Around Silverton (Besides the Mundi Mundi Bash)

Wander Through the Ghost Town
The old buildings are still standing – some barely, but that’s part of the charm. There’s mining equipment scattered about and you can poke around the ruins. Kids love it because it looks like a movie set. Which it often is.

Mad Max Museum
If you’re into the movies, this place has heaps of stuff from the filming. They’ve got some genuine movie cars and trucks, old costumes from the movie as well as photos and a metric shit-ton of memorabilia. Even if you’re not a Mad Max fan, it’s interesting to see how they transformed the landscape for Hollywood.

Silverton Hotel for a Meal And Some beers
The pub does decent counter meals and their hot dogs are famous for a reason. Good spot for a beer in the afternoon too. Staff know their local history and aren’t shy about sharing stories.

Old Gaol
It’s tiny – you can see the whole thing in ten minutes. But worth the couple of dollars entry fee. The cells are cramped and dark. Makes you glad you weren’t a criminal back then.

Just Looking Around
Honestly, half the appeal is sitting outside your van with a cup of tea and taking in the view. The light changes throughout the day and you’ll see why so many photographers come here.

About The Silverton Hotel

This pub has been through a few incarnations. The first one burned down, the second one too. Current building used to be the post office before they turned it into a hotel in 1918. There’s still ruins from the old hotel out the back – apparently that’s where BHP got its start, though I’m not sure about all the details.

These days the place is busy with film crews and tourists, but it hasn’t lost its character. Peter and Patsy who run it are good sorts and always happy to show you the memorabilia collection if you’re interested.

Silverton Caravan Park is on the edge of the Mundi Plains next to Umberumberka Creek. Sometimes you’ll hear the water trickling at night, which beats the sound of generators any day.

Wombat Vintage Tractor Pull Australia Day 2024

Wombat Vintage Tractor Pull Australia Day 2024

We had a fun 2024 Australia Day in Wombat NSW watching the Wombat Vintage Tractor Pull sledge pulling competition. It’s an annual event so get along next year! There’s also a street parade and once the tractor pull is finished everyone goes to the Wombat Hotel for live music and beer.

About The Wombat Vintage Tractor Pull

Check out rows of old-fashioned tractors lined up ready to have a crack at pulling a heavy sledge at the Wombat Vintage Tractor Pull. Some tractors are shiny and polished (not many!) while others show signs of their hard work on the farm.

The tractors rev their engines and prepare to pull heavy loads along the dirt track. As the competition heats up the air fills with the sound of roaring engines and the smell of diesel fuel. It’s a sight to behold as the tractors strain against the weight chugging and roaring as they inch forward.

If you’re looking for a day of old-fashioned fun and excitement get yourself out to the Wombat Vintage Tractor Pull every Australia Day.

Caravan Door Blind To Replace Curtain – Easy Installation

We didn’t like the installed curtain on our Jayco All Terrain caravan door so we looked around for something to replace it. Amanda wanted a roll down caravan door blind but I was worried about it banging around as we travelled. I figured it would probably fall off and damage the door it was being fitted to.

We came across the Camec blind specifically made to fit our our caravan door so it was a no brainer to choose it. The unique runner design holds it in place and stops it flapping around while travelling. The runners simply clip into the groove/channel down the side of the Camec Odyssey door. The Camec Premium Door Blind is designed specifically for integration with the Camec Odyssey Premium Security Doors. In this blog post we’ll have a look at the unique features and specifications that make this blind an ideal choice for those looking to replace their caravan door curtain with a blind.
