Fly to the Flinders Ranges - 1 Day
For the ultimate Flinders experience, and if time is of the essence, there is nothing like flying. The scenery is awe-inspiring from the air. The Flinders Ranges are spectacular in their beauty and ancient history. They provide one of the richest habitats for Australia's native animals. There are few experiences that can compare with the rugged gorges and ridge tops forming a backdrop for the myriad of kangaroos, wallabies and emus that live here. Remote, rugged, real Australia - you won't get better than this. Experience the Wilpena Pound area and it's majestic gorges. This will be an unforgettable experience and talking point that will be the envy of your friends back home.
Fly to the Hawker airstrip, right in the heart of the Flinders. Enjoy a 4WD tour of the Wilpena Pound region driving in the picturesque tree-lined Bunyeroo Gorge then marvel at the changing colour as you travel through the 'corridor in time' at Brachina Gorge. You will be personally guided with an expert of the region through the habitats of Emus, Kangaroos and Reptiles where you may also spot the rare and beautiful Yellow Footed Rock Wallabies. See the earliest living animal fossils (630 million years old) in the world. Many species of birds also inhabit this region, ranging from brightly coloured Ringed Neck Parrots through to the magnificent Wedge-tail eagle, Australia's largest bird of prey. Enjoy lunch at the Prairie Hotel. This historic Outback pub situated along the original Old Ghan Railway Line has an international reputation for its cuisine, in particular, their two signature dishes 'The Feral Mixed Grill' and the 'Feral Antipasto' (other meals available). After lunch, you will continue the tour through the Moralana Scenic Drive. From here you will have amazing views of the southern side of Wilpena Pound on your left and unforgettable views of the Elder Range on your right. This will take you back to the Hawker airstrip to fly you back to Adelaide. An easy and relaxing way to experience the very best.
