Peterborough is unique in that it is one of only two places in the southern hemisphere where you can still see broad (5'3"), standard (4'8˝") and narrow gauge (3'6") railway tracks together. The world famous Flinders Ranges are a short drive away. They are one of Australia's best natural and indigenous cultural landscapes, offering a rich environment for you to experience.
