Information

The Madura Pass is a dramatic feature where, after hundreds of kilometres of flat terrain, the road suddenly drops down from the Hampton Tablelands onto the (coastal) Roe Plain. The difference between the Hampton Tablelands and the Roe Plains is a result of both differing sea levels, laying down beds between 15 and 45 million years ago, and of a dramatic geological uplift.

The Madura Pass and lookout is located to the west of the roadhouse.
