Part 2 Day 1 Flinders Ranges


Wilpena Pound
Early start today with our longest leg, (Adelaide to Wilpena Pound) took us about 7 hours all up. Stopping at Port August for a quick sanga in the back of the van, not much to see but we did have a laugh at the “nothingness”.  I managed to get some good driving time in Doreen,  Quorn to Wilpena was a pretty winding road up the mountains but she handled well.





We were greeted by a few emu’s crossing the road just after registering at the start of the National Park, then again as we got to the information centre & caravan park. Nice and hot up here so we just chilled out for a few hours, had some dinner then headed up to Stokes Lookout to watch the sunset over the ranges. The drive back home was pretty hairy and slow, Kangaroos EVERYWHERE!!!  I was praying we didn’t clean any up! Thankfully it was a safe passage.
