The Opal Inn Hotel, Motel and Caravan Park in the Centre of Coober Pedy, has something for everyone

the ghan route

Boarding The Ghan in Adelaide or Darwin, experience one of the most fascinating great train journeys
of the world. Connections are available on the Indian Pacific and The Overland for guests travelling to
or from Sydney and Melbourne. Enjoy 2 nights aboard this great train in either direction. Marvel at the
spectacular Australian landscapes from fertile countryside surrounding Adelaide to the rusty hues of the
Red Centre, onto the tropical splendour of the Top End. The Ghan is the ultimate journey through the
heart of the continent.
