This is one of the scenic views from the summit of this volcanic outcrop.

Nowadays in summer, it is also a venue for big name outdoor rock concerts.

Hanging Rock Country Races - New Year's Day 2011. The following year kangaroos on the race course stopped the event. A cheap and exciting family day out which should be combined with a picnic lunch. Come early to secure a place by the racecourse.

The death of Mick Jagger's partner, L'Wren Scott, resulted in the postponement of the entire tour. The tour was rescheduled and resumed in Adelaide on October 25, 2014. The Hanging Rock concert was rescheduled to take place on Saturday, November 8, 2014, but Rolling Stones lead Mick Jagger cancelled the concert due to a throat infection.

Great location, room is very clean and has everything you need The hotel is above a nightclub, when the club is open you have to enter the hotel via a grubby side entrance. Don't expect to sleep well here on a Friday or Saturday night, the noise from the night club is very loud and the ear plugs provided upon check in do little to help. Staff are friendly and helpful. Aside from the noise from the club, it is a good hotel.
