    这片化石地很隐蔽,交通不是很方便,在D区有条徒步的路线。从这里往北35公里的地方是当地的露营地,不过最好从伊萨山开辆SUV过来,在格雷戈里河下车,在河边吃顿午饭,在D区逛个1个小时,然后去波特加姆拉国家公园。公园里的露营地很便宜(自带物品),公园外面还有个公园。这里非常不错,相对来说比较原生态,很值得来看看。

    the geology is awesome, but not spectacular to behold. I rather enjoyed the view across the landscape... and I will not forget the story of the Lady who broke up a cattle muster by wandering to take photos.

    We took a guided tour from Adel Grove in hope of learning a lot about the Fossil fields and the area. Geoff the guide was great with his knowledge of the area and history but it could not make up for the lack of fossil left. I suggest if you driving by stop and have a look but don't spend almost $200 on a tour, do a different tour and find out about the area that way.

    This is a must see destination. We took our on road caravan from Gregory Downs to Adels Grove. No problems with the gravel road. We did day trips to Lawn Hill. There are excellent information panels about the flora and fauna. Then we hired a double canoe for $50 for 2 hours. We paddled to the Indarri Falls. You could swim here. Then we carried the canoe to the upper gorge and paddled to a lovely beach area, before returning. If you are lucky, you will find someone , who wants to swap canoes, so it saves the hard yacker of carrying it to the next gorge. The scenery is spectacular. Such an oasis in the outback! On other days we hiked the Island Stack. The 200m climb to the top was steep, but you are rewarded with spectacular views. The cascades was an easy interesting walk, but due to the drought, there was no water cascading. We also did the difficult Upper Gorge 7.5 km walk. Do it in a clockwise direction. The view from the top is wonderful, but the view of Indarri Falls is simply stunning....some of the best I have seen anywhere.

    Forget the Fossil Fields for a while..... do yourself a favour and walk/drive or better still canoe up to the Indarri Falls. Park, walk past explanatory displays down to the river bank to the canoe hire. A simple canoe trip turned into one of the most magnificent natural sights I've ever seen anywhere. When you turn the corner of the gorge in a canoe and see the falls it is absolutely awesome (I hate that word but this is literally true here). Truly one of the most beautiful natural sights anywhere on the planet. And then you park your canoe and swim in the beautiful water. Or carry your canoe up a few steps to the next level of the gorge a few minutes' walk away. Must not be missed. Allow at least a few hours.

    Being an amateur paleontologist I was looking forward to this visit. Very disappointed at what actually saw. The tour (by a guide who doubles in the bar at night) started in a constructed "cave" with models of some of the earlier megafuana on the walls. Here we were given the background of the various finds and also the various different digs that have occurred on the site. Our walk around tour visited just one of the many sites that have been explored - I guessed that this site has probably been worked out from the finds point of view. On our walking tour we stopped to look at various samples of earlier life in the area embedded in rock. The path wound up and around a hill - and the steps appeared to me to be concrete manufactured steps - the patterns in them appeared to be very similar. The Fossil dig is of interest, but I found disappointing when compared to other site sites in the Dinosaur Triangle. If you are in the area, and passing through OK to visit, but not worth a special side trip - visit the Dinosaur Triangle. This is a megafauna area, NOT dinosaur territory.

    There is so much for all of us to learn about the fossil fields and the Dinosaurs, this venue is just the start of your tour through the Dinosaurs area, and well worth having a guide to point out the fossils.

    It is an easy walk round the site and there is lots of information about the many fossils. We are not experts in fossils by any means but enjoyed learning about this amazing place.

    This was a return visit after saying back in 1986 we must return! Here in 2013 the natural beauty remains but there is now a large impressive Ranger building and toilet facilities.We enjoyed a walk to Duwadarri lookout followed by a canoe trip to the Indarri Falls. There is something magical about Boodjamulla National Park. Hopefully it's not harmed by mining developments in the area.

    Taking a two hour trip by canoe down the gorge is just wonderful. Scenery spectacular. After about 30 mins you reach the Indarri Falls and a lovely swimming hole. Spend time here or drag your canoe along a short walk to the next gorge. $50 for a double canoe for two hours. The walks are also very good, we did the Island Stack and Cassades, not difficult, 200m up steps to the Island Stack but worth it for the views.
  • CarolynC330
    Easy walk around the rocks to see fossilised bones still in the rocks. Well kept, tidy and a fantastic view of the sprawling surrounds.

    Camped for 4 nights at Lawn Hill .Enjoyed the convenience of canoeing and hiking in the early morning or late afternoon without day visitors.Very good amenities ,cold water showers but clean and well maintained.The Gorge itself, so spectacular and breathtaking.Nothing better than a natural massage from the falls after a paddle .A very long drive from anywhere but a must see for anybody wanting to experience a true outback oasis.

    Though much of the material has been removed to university collections, the Riversleigh site retains enough material to show its significance in our continent's history. Our tour from Adel's Grove was excellent.

    One of the highlights of our 2012 Qld caravan trip. After leaving our van "Myrtle" at Burke & Wills Roadhouse with the man in charge keeping an excellent eye on it, we drove the bitumen/dirt road to Adel's Grove where we'd booked a room for three nights. A simple donger-type room, it was most comfortable (had electricity too). Outside loos and hot showers were not too far away and with the aid of a torch the loos were easily got to in the middle of the nigh. Meals were up at the main building and of a good standard. Good swimming in the river and a nice walk alongside though the foliage had suffered in the previous wet season. We drove into Lawn Hill early - a wise decision as we didn't have much of a wait to hire a canoe. As we paddled our way down through the gorge we just enjoyed seeing the wonderful scenery at the slow pace. We only went to the end of the first section as we were unable to clamber out of the canoe, lift it and our belongings out then carry it to the next part without being a lot younger and fitter. Still we thoroughly enjoyed what we did see. We enjoyed a sunset tour with wine and nibblies to the top of a nearby hill with wonderful views from Century Mine in the east to the gorge escarpment in the west. The Riversleigh Fossil Field was visited on a tour with another excellent guide who gave us loads of interesting information from the fossils themselves to the types of animals, trees and plants of the area. We had morning tea the the Gregory River crossing, a scene of one ot the postcards we purchased, always better to see the actual place. Lawn Hill had been on our to-do list and our expectations were greatly surpassed given the amount of interesting things and beautiful views we saw.
