Places of interest include the Homestead Park Pioneer Museum and the Wadlata Outback Centre which provide information about the history of the area and the opening up the outback. Experience the Pichi Richi Railway which runs a restored steam operated train on a regular basis between Port Augusta and Quorn in the north.
