Mt Welcome Lookout

Located atop Mount Welcome, the Mt Welcome Lookout offers breathtaking 180-degree views of Roebourne, the coastal plains, and the rugged hills.

The lookout also features multilingual signage that outlines the history of Roebourne township and the indigenous significance of Mt Welcome. It is an ideal spot to capture the beauty of the town and the surrounding area.

At the lookout, you can take in the stunning views of Roebourne and the surrounding hinterland while enjoying the fresh and crisp air.
