Where did you visit for its geographical significance?

I like this thread. It’s giving me some great ideas of places to go visit.

Burke and Wills most northernmost camp, after they agonisingly feel just short of crossing the continent.

Way back in my 20's with my ten girlfriend, now wife we roughly retraced the whole Burke and will route including the more famous "Dig Tree" to return to our home town of Melbourne

Prior to that we drove to the "Tip" as one of my grandmothers was born there after he gold prospecting father travelled across from PNG. One of her brothers dying on Thursday Island, and was buried in the cemetery there which we also visit. Nan as child travelled around Oz by Ox and Dray! And did she have some great stories to tell.

Visiting significant mountains is my favourite geographic goal. I’m currently working my way through a couple of Peakbagger lists, the most famous of which are Tasmania’s Abels. To be an Abel, mountains need to be higher than 1,100m above sea level and be separated from other mountains by a drop of at least 150m on all sides. Home - The Abel Mountains

View from the weekend (keen eyes will be able to spot one of Tasmania’s more famous peaks):

Think I can see Frenchman’s Cap…. Peute-Etre?

Just visited Slope Point - the most southern point* of the South Island of NZ.

Quite appropriately, it’s at the end of a sheep paddock that abuts cliffs!

It’s well below the southern tip of Tassie!

*the most southerly point of NZ is a good few degrees further south into the Southern Ocean!

Visited the same spot in 2012. There's a geocache there, or there was back then when I was doing that with one of the Warklings.
