Camp Grounds Flinders Ranges/Gammon Ranges

Walkers Crossing is closed due to flooding and may not be open by the end of April. Check this website...go to On the Road button and then click on Road Conditions.

School Holidays and campgrounds will be packed! Try Warraweena Private Conservation Park. Friendly people, good campsites and very good 4x4 tracks. You may email Stony Steiner at warraweena@internode.on.net or visit their website www.warraweena.com

There are some bush camping areas outside Arkaroola and the Gammon Ranges NP or good bush camp sites within the NP. They probably won't take bookings.

Wilpena and Arkaroola are Bush 'Resorts' and charge accordingly for their services.

Have fun.

Sara and Mark try brendon reynolds at willow springs station 86480016 for good bush camping with bush toilets and showers at homestead, about $10? Also allow a full day and do the sky trek for great veiws of the flinders and good medium 4wding about $40? I believe that the causeway to cordillo downs track will still be closed and you may have to cross over the burke and wills bridge and travel via arrabury stn. You will need to check closer to departure time.
Regards Steve

Walkers Crossing and Cordillo Downs will both be out still at this time. The causeway at Innamincka will mean you'll have to come up to Birdsville via Arrabury - but you could then cut across to the Cordillo Downs road. The only way to see the water in Lake Eyre is to take a flight over it - from either Marree or William Creek, you will not be able to reach the water by road.

there are few good camping spots within the Gammons:
Grindells hut area will be popular with campers as it has readily available water -rain water for drinking and bore for washing.

But further afield there are a few good spots...(just drive 4wd)around the track and stop much anywere you want.

Around the backside the track is only one way. If you want to go all the way round its anticlockwise.

Sara & Mark,

There are some good suggestions there and the drive around the back of MMt. Searle and the Gammons is beautifull. I was speaking to Doug Sprigg l(from Arkaroola) last week and he said usually Easter is quiet up there. If you want showers and a bed then thats a good place but bushcamping is great around grindles hut and there is a toilet there.

Hi Sarah & Mark-- Try the Wilmington Tourist Park . It's a lovely park on the outskirts on the banks of Stoney Creek The birdlife there is amazing!!
Enjoy Lyn
