From the deep red gorges and richly vegetated hills of the southern Flinders Rangers to the amazingly beautiful deserts and endless salt lakes of the north, this is real adventure country. You'll find country towns, outback pubs and a load of Aboriginal history compete with spectacular colours and wildlife fighting for your attention.
Wide open spaces are the order of the day, with this region stretching to the borders of Western Australian, Northern Territory, Queensland and New South Wales! For a totally gob-smacking experience, the Flinders Ranges & Outback has to be on your "must see" list.
