Flinders Trek

The Flinders Range rugged landscape is 800 million years in the making. It boasts an epic geological story that attracts Geologists from around the globe. Evidence of the Earth’s earliest life forms emerged here. And today we are still uncovering the evidence!

For 7 days, you will be able to immerse yourself in this spectacular environment. Enjoying many of the renowned walking trails in the Ranges and some of the lesser-known ones as well. You will walk along sections of the iconic Heysen Trail and climb summits offering the most spectacular views. And also cross the natural amphitheatre of Wilpena Pound!

Benefits of a Guided Walking Tour

Difficulty: This is an active walking tour with occasional steep paths and summit climbs, but it’s made much easier with the help of an experienced guide, plenty of rest stops, and only needing to carry a day pack. You will be accompanied by two experienced guides throughout the tour and return each evening to comfortable lodge accommodation and a delicious meal.
