Rob, just a correction that at
Blinman there is a charge for a mine tour now. There was last week anyway.
Parachilna Gorge road is currently being worked on so the road is closed from Angorichina Village to
Blinman. Consequently, along the gorge to the West there are some lovely camps and little traffic. Spent some time there this week. I think the road is to re-open again soon though.
Spent some days also at Bendleby Ranges too, though a little expensive for the 4x4 drives. Some of the drives suitable for soft-roaders and we saw a Ford Territory on one track.
Really love the
Flinders Ranges
