  • 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.
