Information

Mount Ida is an abandoned goldfields townsite located about 100 km east south east of Leonora. Some ruins to explore by the roadside and a cemetery a few kilometres away (see Nearby Place listing). It is named after the hill of the same name some 21km south south west. The hill was named by the explorer/surveyor John Forrest in 1869, most likely after a lad friend.
