Try not to get dizzy staring up at the near perpendicular cliffs of Italowie Gorge one of the major highlights of the park along with four-wheel driving.
Take in the parks towering cliffs and freshwater springs along the Weetootla Gorge Hike, one of the most popular trails in the park. With a little luck, you could see a rare Yellow-footed Rock-wallaby along the way.
