• The Maggot Bar

    April 18, 2022 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C

    There are a number of lookouts and high points around the Park, but none provide a vantage into the secret Ranger business conducted in the Maggot Bar. The Maggot Bar’s beauty is in it eclectic functionality and decoration. Refrigeration, fire-pit, seats, table-tennis, TV, and an outhouse.

    Catering was absent, but with $4 beers, this earns it the title of “Best Bar in the Red Centre”. Even if they didn’t serve beer, it would be 5 Stars ⭐️ because of the sunset experience viewing out onto the amphitheater around the station. From the Bar, we look up at Kalaranga, Sundial Rock, The Battleship, Castle Rock and others. The rock colours are predominantly an intense dark red, but constantly changing.

    Oops …….. we were so distracted by the stimulating conversation, and aforementioned cheap beer - we forgot to take a photo. 😟
