How to Visit the Pinnacles: Tickets, Hours, Tours and Everything You Need to Know
The whole visit in one page. What park entry costs, when the Discovery Centre shuts, when you have to be out, and which departure suits the day you have.
Five pieces on visiting the Pinnacles. How to plan the whole day. The one-way drive and the walk trail, stop by stop. The facts that surprise people. What changes when there are children in the car. And the one real decision this attraction forces on you, which is whether to come in daylight or after it. Longer, decision-shaped pieces live in the guides.

The 4.5-kilometre one-way drive and the 1.5-kilometre walk, stop by stop, and the fossilised root casts most visitors walk straight past.
A Dutch chart from 1658 that may show them, a park named from a word for crooked, and the hard grey lid that made every pillar possible.
Which departures carry young children and which do not, what the sandboarding actually involves, and the 300-metre path that works for everybody.
The visitor centre shuts at half past four and the sky is not dark until after it, so the two formats are a choice rather than a preference.
If you are planning rather than reading, start with the practical pages. Visiting the Pinnacles has the hours and the entry fee. Getting there has the road north and the five places departures leave from. And Pinnacles Tours lists every guided departure with its price.
