South Flinders Discovery Tour (5 Days)

Tour the Southern Flinders Ranges from Hawker, Wilpena Pound, Willow Springs and the historic mining town of Blinman. Drive the reasonably challenging, medium grade Skytrek 4WD Track to utilise the capabilities of your 4WD vehicle, experience the exhilarating beauty of the surrounding landscape and take in the magnificent views from the numerous heights.

Drive through the Bunyeroo, Brachina, Parachilna and Glass Gorges and learn about the geological importance of the region whilst stopping at numerous lookouts to be bowled over by the breathtaking views of the ranges. Accompany us on a tour through the Blinman Heritage Mine.

This tour concludes at Copley Caravan Park with a farewell dinner at the Copley West End Hotel or a BBQ organised by us.
