More than somewhere along the way

Cue is one of Western Australia's great historic outback towns — a place where the gold rush streetscape remains part of everyday life and some of the Murchison's most extraordinary places are within reach.

Take your time. Walk the heritage streets, head out to Walga Rock, explore old mining towns, search for wildflowers or simply enjoy the pace of a small Murchison community.

When to visit

Outback seasons

May to October is the most popular time to explore Cue, with milder days making it ideal for walking, exploring heritage sites and heading further into the Murchison.

After good winter rainfall, the surrounding country can come alive with wildflowers. Summer is considerably hotter, so travellers should prepare carefully for remote-area conditions.
