Nullabor Crossings - A History of Challenge

Museum of Perth, 8-10 The Esplanade Perth WA 6000

The Nullarbor, though small, is a distinguishing feature of the Australian landscape. An obstacle that remained uncharted for many years, that separates WA from 'the eastern states' both geographically and psychologically.

Let us take you on a journey from the first cycle crossing by Arthur Richardson in 1896 up to 2021's IndiPac winner Collin Ottaway. En route you'll be privy to some remarkable recent dicoveries illustrating the stories of the women and men who've heeded the call of the treeles plain.

Curated by the Western Australian Historical Cycle Club

Monday - Saturday. 10am - 4pm

Entry by Donation.
