Beyond the Ice: An Immersive VR Geo-Challenge

Hallett Cove is one of the best-known geological sites in Australia and internationally. It has been declared a Geological Monument and Heritage Site. Preserved by nature in an ancient valley for hundreds of millions of years, this fossilised landscape paints an incredible picture of Australia’s past, including an ice age at the South Pole, the rise of the Mt Lofty Ranges and the breakup of the supercontinent Gondwana.

To reveal Hallett Cove’s remarkable history, Project LIVE presents a new virtual tour that immerses you in this spectacular landscape. Discover fantastic folds and the spectacular Sugarloaf, uncover the mystery of the missing gaps in time, fossick for fossils and much more. As you progress through the tour, you might just add to your virtual pet rock collection and unlock some scenic drone flights as well. Come on a journey beyond the ice to reveal Hallett Cove’s deep geological secrets!

Don't have a VR headset? Don't worry! From the comfort of your own desk, or out and about on your mobile, explore some panoramic 360 images, 3D outcrop models and deep zoom images of Hallett Cove's amazing landscape using our Web Geotours that faithfully replicate the VR experience.
