Rangelands Rifts and Sunset Tour

Visit the jump-up (mesa) region of Rangelands Station where erosion has created narrow channels (rifts) through the rock. We explore these rift formations before enjoying the spectacular views from the sunset lookout.
We supply the nibbles and a glass of wine for you at sunset. If you prefer to drink something else then you are most welcome to BYO. 

Tour Includes:
     - Pick up at your Winton accommodation
     - Access to Rangelands Station (Private Property)
     - Walk through the Rangelands Rifts
     - Sunset Nibbles and a glass of wine
   ​
​Departs: Monday, Wednesday and Saturday
Duration:  3 hours (approx)
Time: 4.15pm - 7.15pm * 
*Actual time is dependent on sunset time throughout the year
~This tour involves walking on uneven ground through rocky chasms (Rifts). Some  guests prefer to enjoy some quiet time near the bus instead, but they don't miss out on sunset!
MORE ABOUT RANGELANDS
More about Rangelands...
Rangelands Station is a privately owned working cattle station, so this is a place you do not have access to on your own. You must be on a tour to visit.

Not only is this location spectacular for sunsets it also has some amazing rock erosion that we call Rifts. This wind and water erosion is wearing down on weak points in the range and a little crack gets a little bigger and a little deeper. Once the crack wears through the top harder rocks and into slightly different lower rock, the erosion starts to look different and a half an hour glass shape is formed.

From the top the sunsets are always special - if we have cloud you get some extra colour but without cloud you get the outback glow which occurs about 10-30 minutes after the sun goes down. It's really very special!
