Parachilna
Gorge is a stunning natural feature where Parachilna Creek has carved a dramatic, steep, and rocky passage through the mountains. The base of
the gorge is adorned with majestic river red gums, providing a picturesque contrast to the rugged terrain.The road through
the gorge is generally in good condition but is winding, narrow in
places, and features several crests. It also crosses the creek multiple times, and these crossings can become challenging after rain. High ground clearance is recommended, as water often deposits stones and
debris on the roadway. Always
check the road conditions before crossing a flowing creek and consider seeking advice in
Blinman or Parachilna for up-to-date weather and road reports.When exploring, drive cautiously and adjust to the conditions. Importantly, avoid camping in dry creek beds or too close to the banks, as sudden heavy rainfall can transform the creek into a dangerous torrent.
