Been thinking of travelling to the Shire of Laverton and want to know the rich history and tourist attractions in the area? 

The Great Beyond Explorers’ Hall of Fame is a Laverton visitor information centre that utilises cutting edge technology to bring to life the characters and stories of the past. 

Complementing the rich visual history of the Northern Goldfields, the Great Beyond Explorers’ Hall of Fame recounts the stories of hardship and bravery even in harsh and dangerous conditions.

Northern Goldfields of Western Australia’s landscape is a unique and varied one, shifting from sands, stony mountain ranges to eucalypt woodlands, mulga scrub, rivers, creeks and salt lakes – but have you ever considered how the early explorers and pioneers coped with these unfamiliar and unforgiving conditions?

One of the must-visit Laverton tourist places is the Great Beyond Explorers’ Hall of Fame. Step back in time with several notable explorers, who led challenging expeditions through Central Australia during the mid to late 19th Century. 

As each explorer ‘speaks’ of their experiences and reasons for venturing into the unknown, it brings their characters to life like no book can ever achieve. You get to discover what it was like for women and pioneers living and working on the Goldfields during the pioneer days and learn about the valuable industries that sustain the inland

Using various attention-grabbing forms of technology that are sure to impress people of all ages, the Hall of Fame pays tribute to the explorers and the pioneers and women of the same era. 

From the gold rush days to flora and fauna, pastoral history to the nickel boom of 1969, the Hall of Fame provides an overview from prehistory to the present day.
