The Golden Gumboot is a competition between the Far North Queensland towns of Tully, Innisfail, and Babinda in Australia for the wettest town of Australia. These towns are located in the Wet Tropics and on land that was previously covered by rainforest. These areas experience some of the highest levels of rainfall in Australia through monsoonal rain and cyclones. The winner for the competition (since 1970) was awarded a rubber boot.
This article may be confusing or unclear to readers. In particular, there appear to be two separate things: a permanent fixed monument in Tully and an annual competition (possibly with some movable trophy?) involving Tully, Innisfail, and Babinda. (May 2024) |
