Ken was keen to try out some Fourwheel driving so we joined him for some rough roads high excitement and amazing scenery and wild life. You pay some money at the Austral Hotel in the main street of Quorn and access the Arden Hills from within Warren Gorge. A magnificent experience with stunning views to the East and West.

This took us to the very beautiful Warren Gorge about 20 minutes north of Quorn on the Arden Vale road. This is a camping area with scattered longdrop toilets and little else other than serenity a flowing creek with tadpoles and a rocks in which to hide yell http://www.travelblog.org//Oceania/Australia/South-Australia/Quorn/blog-186398.html What happenedOne of Quorn's attraction is the Pitchi Ritchi Railway. Our day's adventure started when we were having our delicious Miller's breakfast at the Old Mill motel in Quorn served by our gracious host Concepta with a loud toottoot indicating that the steam train was all steamed up and ready to go. The kids were very excited We walked down to the station and paid for our prereserv http://www.travelblog.org//Oceania/Australia/South-Australia/Quorn/blog-186395.html IntroductionThe hikers ventured to Quorn for some holidays with friends. About 10 minutes out of Quorn is a walking trail that takes you to the top of Dutchman's stern a rocky hill that affords views to Wilpena Pound in one direction and Spencer Gulf and Port Augusta in the other. The Information centre in the Main street in Quorn had free walking maps and lots of notsohelpful advice. How http://www.travelblog.org//Oceania/Australia/South-Australia/Quorn/blog-186391.html I figured that hiring a car was going to be the best way to link up a few places in South Australia that I was interested in seeing so the day after my return from Kangaroo Island I was heading northeast in a Toyota Corolla with only 3000km on the clock. My progress skirted the Barossa Valley and entered the Riverland region with foliage and river photo stops at regular intervals.
