There are two tours available. The three-hour Gorge Tour includes a visit to the grave of pioneer John Corbett and an overview of the geological history that has created the rugged sandstone formations. Walk to the top of the escarpment for freshwater crocodile viewing. The boat cruise gives you the chance to experience the eerie silence and spectacular beauty of Cobbold Gorge. Hats, covered walking shoes and a small bottle of water are required.

The Gorge Tour departs at 10.00am from April 1 to October 31. During Easter and in the coolest months from June to August, a 1.30pm tour is also offered.

The second tour available from Cobbold Gorge is the Robin Hood Cattle Station and Fishing Experience. Here, you can gain an insight into the cattle grazing industry as you see first hand some of the implications of management today and into the future on the 1237-square-kilometre property.
Your guide will bring to life some of these challenges and you will also have time to relax over smoko and test your fishing skills against the mighty barramundi fighting fish at one of the large water storages. Some tackle is provided, or many guests bring their own. The four-hour tour departs at 8.00am and 1.30pm daily (minimum numbers apply).

For a different perspective of this country, a helicopter is available at various times over the season to do scenic flights over the sandstone escarpment. This gives a fantastic view of the large expanse of sandstone along with the river systems.

Once you’ve seen the attractions close by, you might like to do a self-drive excursion to Agate Creek Gemfields (40km), Gilberton Loop and The Quartz Blow.

Cobbold Gorge offers an open bush setting, giving a feel of warm hospitality. A range of accommodation is on offer from comfortable air-conditioned en suite rooms to camping with fireplaces, or powered sites with en suites.
