Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Nice drive to here . Best with4 WD . Nice Geological formations and Time Lines. 500- 600 million year old rocks. Get out of the car and walk up the ravines to see a good variety of rock types and some plant fossils in the slate sedimentery rock.
Look and you will see small caves in the rock faces . Low and behold , out hops a endangered Yellow footed rock Wallaby. So cute and enjoyable to see. Do It !

Drive into Brachina Gorge and appreciate the age by looking for the geology signs. We were treated to a sighting of the Yellow Tailed Rock Wallabies too. A lovely unspoilt place.

We were keen to see this feature, and it was truly amazing. There has been flooding, and this is apparent in the road surface (though it had been cleared, some repairs are still needed) - it is definitely only for 4WD. Makes you really appreciate the land, the passage of time, and our relative insignificance in terms of nature! Would be impressive when the water is running!

Stunning gorge, fascinating trail to follow, water flowing in the Gorge so be careful after considerable rainfall, road needed regrading in places.

Make sure you visit this Gorge. Rough roads/creek beds but ok for a normal car. Was recently graded when we went so even better fro us! Get out and walk along sections fo the creek bed loking at the rock faces and search for the wallabies.

We drove this trail from Bunyeroo. Whilst the driving was challenging at times it was an essential part of our exploration. Yellow footed rock wallabies too for wildlife watchers

Luckily the roads opened up after a big down pour, first for 3 years. Made our drive through more exciting. A lot of omg was said along the way

Seek out the golden Spike. Only one in the southern hemisphere. Well signed drive through time. A hidden treasure of South Australia. Would recommend a SUV or 4WD . Check road conditions with Information centre at Wilpena would be best before traveling. Not far from a good pub at Blinman

Where can I find out about a tour of the Brachia Gorge Geological Trail? How far away is the Rawnsley Park Station from Brachia Gorge? - thanking you for your assistance

I would call Wilpena Pound. They have heaps of info there and would help you out. Rawnsley Park is about 30 minutes drive away from the drives through the gorges.
