Experience Overview
Fresh air, fantastic company and a front row seat to some of Australia’s most memorable scenery – this seven-day journey through Ikara-Flinders Ranges National Park will see you hiking and exploring some of the most gorgeous scenic areas on foot. Let a local leader guide you through hundreds of millions of years of geological history as you walk along valleys, explore gorges and tackle mountains. From your base at the ancient natural amphitheatre of Ikara (Wilpena Pound), discover a world of rugged landscapes, unique wildlife and views worth climbing for.
Highlights
- Spend five nights in the heart of the Ikara-Flinders Ranges National Park, staying at a resort on the fringes of Ikara (Wilpena Pound) – a remarkable natural amphitheatre formed over millions of years.
- Embark on a scenic hike from Dutchmans Stern, passing through a sugar gum forest and she-oak woodlands to be rewarded with incredible views of the surrounding plains.
- Travel with a local leader who will let you in on little-known facts and share stories of the ancient landscapes.
- Be treated to a special private tour of Sacred Canyon with a First Nations guide. Learn about the cultural significance of the site, the ancient rock engravings and traditional bush medicine from the perspective of the Adnyamathanha people.
- Climb to the summit of the mountain to take in a sight you won’t forget – of all the incredible views the Flinders Ranges offer, the one from the peak of Mt Ohlssen Bagge might just top them all.
