Continued on from Mt Remarkable National Park (see blog archive)
There was a change in the itinerary. Elder Range day walk was on Monday 24th, instead Monday 31st.
Monday 24th:
Elder Range (13km); a return walk,
starting from the Moralana scenic drive south of Wilpena Pound, ascending to a
730m peak on the Elder Range. Excellent views north to Wilpena Pound and Lake
Torrens to the west.
Both of the Flinders Ranges walks are full-day
“medium-hard” walks that take in the best features of the area, however there
are plenty of shorter, easier, alternatives depending on people’s preferences
at the time.
Camp at either Wilpena Pound or continue on to Hawker.
