It’s ALL good, Sonya! I’d suggest basing yourself somewhere central like Wilpena Pound or Rawnsley Park, then exploring the Pound itself (several excellent walking trails start here); Brachina Gorge and the Bunyeroo Valley (awesome rock formations); and Stokes Hill Lookout for scenic views en route to Blinman, another fine area to explore. I’ve never done Skytrek from Willow Creek Station, but I’ve heard it’s amazing and it’s on my own list of things to do. That’s a good start – but there’s also the southern and northern Flinders, and Arkaroola Wilderness Resort – one of my all time top 10 places in OZ! Good luck – I hope you get there soon 😀

Luckily, there’s a resort just up the hill from the camp ground, Debbie! So the white sheets would be well & truly waiting for your return 😀

looks and sounds like you really enjoyed yourself!!

It’s a MAGIC place for hiking and birding!! It’s one of the most magnificent places in OZ – yet not nearly so popular as some of the others. That’s MY good luck!!!

Thank you!! But I can’t take credit for that fabulous view 🙂 These birds are SO unafraid of humans – it was almost like he was posing for me!

Thank you, my friends!

I’m glad I inspired you – but I can’t really take credit for the staggering scenery, much as I’d like to!! I look forward to reading more of your adventures this year!! Happy New Year!

You need to switch to the metric system – nearly-19-kilometres sounds WAY more impressive, right??!! The air is so clear, the mountains seem much closer than they really are!! Apostle Birds are so called because they usually hang out in groups of 10-12 or so!! This one was a lone opportunist who hung around long after his friends had vamoosed into the bush because we were still eating!!

And Happy New Year to you too, my most faithful of blog followers whose comments I ALWAYS look forward to reading!!

Thank you, and Happy New Year to you too!!
