Mount Isa Cityscape
A comprehensive view of the township nestled within the rugged, iron-rich ridges of the Selwyn Ranges.
Lake Moondarra
A vibrant blue reservoir located just north of the city, standing out as a desert oasis against the terracotta soil.
Gregory River Ribbon
One of the few perennial rivers in the region, appearing as a distinct green line of vegetation through the savannah.
Gulf Savannah Wetlands
Intricate patterns of salt pans and mangrove-lined estuaries visible as the aircraft descends toward Doomadgee.
Sit on the right side for morning flights to have the landscape perfectly illuminated by the sun. Lake Moondarra is visible within the first 5 minutes of flight, and the Gregory River is the primary landmark mid-route before the descent into the Doomadgee community.

Mount Isa Mines
Aerial view of the massive copper and lead smelting stacks and sprawling industrial infrastructure during takeoff.
Barkly Tableland
Infinite vistas of the semi-arid Mitchell grass plains stretching toward the Northern Territory border.
Nicholson River
Watch for the dry riverbeds and braided channels that snake across the landscape toward the Gulf of Carpentaria.
Choose the left side for afternoon flights to experience the sunset over the desert horizon. This side is also excellent for viewing the extensive mining operations that define Mount Isa's geography during the initial climb.
