John Egan Pioneer Track

– Less than 6km from town, the track showcases amazing rock formations that have been sculpted by nature over millions of years. The track’s namesake, John Egan, was a local war hero who served in WWII in three areas of conflict - Egypt, Cyprus and Papua New Guinea.

Stonehenge Address Book – The Stonehenge Address Book began years ago when the local mail man, Mr Johnny Weston, was stranded by his broken down truck. Whilst waiting to be rescued Mr Weston wrote ‘Jundah’ in stones. If you’re travelling past pull off to the side of the road, collect some stones and leave a message or your name for future travellers.

THINGS TO SEE & DO

XXXX Hill – Opposite the Stonehenge Address Book is XXXX Hill with panoramic views of the Thomson River floodplains and the surrounding Johnstone Ranges. During wet weather, don’t forget to ask our Information Centre about the magnificent rock holes.

When it rains in Stonehenge we have some beautiful flowing rock holes. Only the locals know how to get there so if you happen to be lucky enough to visit in the rain, call in and ask our Information Centre how to get there!
