Super Pit Lookout

Super Pit Lookout

One of the most popular attractions in the Goldfields, the Super Pit Lookout draws thousands of locals and tourists each year. The opportunity to view a working mine site in action and the chance of watching a blast keep the Lookout firmly on the local must do list.

The first Super Pit Lookout was a fenced area with a small viewing platform constructed 100m south of the original Hainault Tourist Mine, near the Boulder Block. Over the years the Lookout has been moved to accommodate the changing pit and is now off Mount Monger Road (off the Goldfields Highway).  

The Super Pit Lookout is open 7am to 7pm daily.

The Super Pit Lookout will be closed for upgrades
Tuesday 12 May 2026 – Friday 22 May 2026
Reopening Saturday 23 May 2026

Thanks to community feedback, we’re using this closure to improve access by fully sealing the lookout access road. 

This is the first of several upgrades planned for the Super Pit Lookout, with more improvements to come later this year. 

Thank you to our community. Your feedback shapes how we plan and improve this space.

Hannans North Tourist Mine

After visiting the working mine, a visit to Hannans North Tourist Mine completes the experience with blast footage, a decommissioned truck and a scale model of the Fimiston Open Pit.

The rejuvenated Hannans North tourist attraction (formerly known as the Mining Hall of Fame) provides a great day out for locals, families, school groups, and visitors to Kalgoorlie-Boulder.

KCGM, as major sponsor, took on the role of caretaker of Hannans North Tourist Mine in 2012 after the Mining Hall of Fame closed. Since then, the team at Hannans North has been reopening the site in stages. The current phase of renovations sees a series of exhibits being refurbished and reopened.
