“Landscape” view/ much closer view (#7A in series: Parachilna Gorge)

 

 

This series’ “7” posts both feature a “landscape” photograph, but “7B” will offer a much closer view of one of the “7A” landscape’s four peaks.

Both featured images show just part of what is a striking landscape through all 360 degrees; that holds true through the entire length of Parachilna Gorge.

The gorge is on the western side of the northern Flinders Ranges, and is easily accessed from the nearby “town” of Parachilna.

Parachilna is within daytripping distance of Wilpena, but a much better idea is to stay two nights at Parachilna’s truly-wonderful hotel. (the hotel pretty much is the “town”)

I’d suggest you spend the greater part of your first Parachilna day in the Gorge, and the greater part of your second one at the nearby Nilpena Ediacara National Park, which showcases and protects one of the world’s most significant fossil sites.

This post’s photo (copyright Doug Spencer) was taken at 2. 47 pm on 07 June 2023.

The effective focal length was 54mm; the “7B” image was taken just three minutes later, looking in approximately the same direction, but through a much longer lens.
