Things to do in Southeast

  1. Wonambi Fossil Centre

    The Naracoorte Caves National Park visitors centre, doubles as the impressive Wonambi Fossil Centre – a re-creation of the rainforest that covered this area 200,000 years ago. Follow a ramp down past grunting, life-sized reconstructions of extinct animals, including a marsupial lion, a giant echidna, Diprotodon australis (koala meets grizzly bear), and Megalania prisca – 500kg of bad-ass goanna.

  2. Old Cheese Factory

    In a converted cheese factory (you might have guessed), this outfit gives the Meningie pub a run for its money. Lean on the front bar with the locals, or munch into steaks, lasagne, mixed grills, Coorong mullet or a Coorong burger (with mullet!) in the cavernous dining room. There's a very lo-fi history museum here too.
