The largest mountain range in South Australia, the Flinders Ranges stretch over 265 miles in length, and boast some of the most diverse mountain terrain in the country. The Ranges' most famous landmark, and a must-see spot, is Wilpena Pound, a beautiful natural amphitheatre best seen from above on a scenic flight.
For those who prefer to keep their feet on the ground, the four-day Arkaba Walk takes guests on a classic Aussie bush walk through the ranges. Thanks to the diversity of the scenery, and the added bonus of 600 million years of geological history, this is one of our favourite 'Great Walks of Australia' and will see trekkers sleeping in swag beds, stargazing far from any light pollution and dining on seriously good local bush cuisine.
It's hard to believe Adelaide is just five hours' drive away...
