Hi Scott,
just spent 9 days touring through the Flinders & Gammon Ranges. Great Spot. Spots to see: Kanyaka Homestead. Wilpena Pound - camp in the resort. Parachilna Gorge good camping spots Parachilna end of gorge. While travelling Parachilna gorge detour through Glass gorge & travel out to the Nuccaleena Ruins. Another pretty spot is Aoona Dam, great camping spot. Check out Blinman and the old mining area. There is a lot more to explore & plenty of great camping areas. Suggest you buy "The Flinders Ranges" by Ron & Viv Moon, gives you all the details you are looking for including PAR's, sights, camping, walking trails and treks.
Good Luck & happy touring

thanks for the reply would i be able to tow a 4x4 camper trailer in there,how long does it take to get there for Wilpera Pound?

HI Scott the flinder,s is a great spot CAMP out at PARACHLINA GORGE it,s free and you can get fire wood [ sleepers ] from the main railway line near parachilna be fore you head into the gorge from parachilna it,s not that far from wilpena if you are going to do day trips around the flinder,s DEFANTLY do the SKYTREK 4WD TRACK out at WILLOW SPRINGS STATION u,ll love it .have a great stay cheer,s GREENDOG

Hi Scott,

I agree with all thats been suggested here. However, I'm not sure how easily you'll get a campertrailer into Parachilna Gorge (free or not). I guess it depends on what you've got. We took our CT through the gorge, and up the Aroona Valley and camped at the national parks site there, which was lovely. Your pommy relative would enjoy the wildlife there too - tons of kangaroos at dusk, a pair of emus grazing around the site and lots of other birds. There are lots of kangaroos at Wilpena too. Don't miss Sacred Canyon - its a rare opportunity to see very early aboriginal rock carving, as well as being a lovely place. If you've got a pom with you you should try and have a meal at the Parachilna pub (the Prairie). It will be the best opportunity to eat 'feral food' in Australia.
Hope you have a great time
Cheers
Anni
