Ediacara fossil tour
Nilpena Edicara National Park surpassed our expectations greatly. For us, it was a one-time and long awaited experience to see Ediacara fossils closely and personally.

The Park, staff, presentation and viewing of the fossils was absolutely breathtaking.
We would recommend that if you can, please book a tour and learn so much about early life on earth and the unique National Park.

Fossils for ever!
An insight into an almost unimaginable past when life on earth first began. The beautifully restored sharing shed alone is worth the visit but the blacksmith's shed fossil display is even more awesome and cleverly presented. Greatly helped by our host Dylan's erudite explanations of everything past and present.

Small organisms BIG story
Amazing country that has so much to share with us about origins of life. Meticulous work by paleontologists to uncover this wealth of the fossil record. The animation " Alice's Restaurant" helps visualize these organisms.

World class tour of 550 million year old fossils
This is a world class visitor experience. Astounding Ediacara fossils found almost nowhere else on earth, presented in an excellent AV presentation and then viewing the actual rocky beds and fossils with an excellent guide (thanks Dylan) to guide you through what you are seeing.
I cannot recommend this highly enough.
