Cafe Gorge is a good place to eat. Wouldn't bother with the Dream hunters cave exhibit, Goughs Cave was excellent.

Did an extensive cliff top walk which was quite steep in places, but the views at the top were will worth the event. Circular walk did talk a good 2 1/2 hours and unsuitable for those with mobility problems.
