steep, ragged slopes of the gorges. Enjoy lunch at the Prairie Hotel at Parachilna (population 7) situated along the original Old Ghan Railway Line. The Hotel is renowned for its high quality Indigenous food including its two signature dishes, ‘The Feral Mixed Grill’ and the ‘Feral Antipasto’. The vibrant colours of the rock faces change through the day and dusk and dawn are unforgettable. (BL)
