Your expert guide will take you through some of the most unforgettable
scenery. The Flinders Ranges are home to a vast number of native animals
and birds. Some of Australia’s best-known animals abound amongst the gum
trees and on the steep, ragged slopes of the gorges. Drive through
Bunyeroo and Brachina Gorges to the western side of the range. This
region was once an ancient seabed and it now carries some of the most
important early fossils. Here you will find 600 million year old
fossils, a time span that defies understanding. The homeward route will
take you through historic towns that hark back to the pioneering days.
As you travel along the coastal road you will see the old ports and
seaside towns that were so important in the development of this region.
The countryside slowly changes as you approach Adelaide, but the memory
of the raw majesty that is the Flinders will remain with you. (BL) Note: Luggage is restricted to one overnight bag per person |
