Hi, we have a couple of weeks off in September, I was wondering is it too late in the year to be heading down to the
Flinders Ranges and is two weeks long enough to get down there, have a look around and get back? I know we could spend a month down there, but wondered if it was long enough to just whet our appetites?
Any
feedback would be welcome.
Thanks, Db.

Hi Aka,
As the others have said, September is just fine. Cool nights and very pleasant warm days. Should be there about that time myself. Last time we stayed at
Rawnsley Park Station which I thought was better than Wilpeena but others have said they prefer Wilpeena so it is personal prefference I guess.
2weeks from Brisy should be OK as the last time we were there it was a small part of a 3 week holiday which included Dubbo 4 days,
Broken Hill 4days Wilpeena,
Whyalla, Harndorf then back along the Murray and
home to Port Macquarie area via Dubbo again.
I was very impressed with the
Flinders Ranges that is why we are heading back there. Hopefully we will see some wild flowers along the way this time as the last time it was toward the end of the long drought in Nov. 2007.
Make sure you spend some time in
Broken Hill as there is so much to see there as
well. This will be my 3rd time in the
Hill as I have not seen all of it yet.
Might see you along the way somewhere.
Cheers, Bruce.
