Golden Gumboot, Tully
Golden Gumboot
A giant golden gumboot sculpture about 7.9 m tall in the town of Tully, its height matching the annual rainfall record set in 1950.
Tully is known as one of the wettest towns in Australia. In 1950, it recorded about 7.9 m of annual rainfall, and the town built a golden gumboot of the same height to commemorate it. Visitors can climb the internal staircase to the top of the boot for views over the town and sugarcane fields. Next to it is a visitor centre that provides information on Tully Gorge, Murray Falls, and other nearby attractions. Tully is about 25 km from Mission Beach and is often visited on the way to Tully River rafting or Murray Falls.
