Take a trip back in time with the Written in the Rocks guided tour, driving and walking the Arkaroola Wilderness Sanctuary. The ancient geological history of this region has been exposed at the surface, revealing hundreds of millions of years of sedimentary and glacial activity. This land is ancient, and it shows. Stop at the Ochre Wall, Lively’s Gold Find, the Welcome Mine and the Jasper Twins as you explore the complex geology of Arkaroola, wandering over ancient glacial rocks from past ice ages at Stubbs Waterhole to the ancient fossil sea-beds now forming near-vertical cliffs in Bararranna Gorge. You may even be rewarded with sightings of the shy Yellow-footed Rock Wallaby, wedge-tailed eagles and brown falcons (among others). This tour is tailored to suit each group, and it includes numerous walks of which the difficulty and length will be at the discretion of the tour participants. And don’t worry, it does include a morning/afternoon tea stop with light refreshments, including the famous Arkaroola Lamingtons! These stops also give you an opportunity wander quietly, taking in the atmosphere and grandeur of this amazing wilderness.
