Trip Details
Quorn is approximately 4hrs (336km’s – Hwy A1) drive from Adelaide.
Please let us know when you expect to arrive as we can meet you prior to departure. We can help you book a site at the Quorn Caravan Park for the night prior to you getting there, if you wish.
Day 1
From our base at Quorn we head east to explore the well preserved Kanyaka Ruins and then on to set up camp at Rawnsley Park and after lunch drive the 4WD track on the property. The Chace Range track is a great way to get a feel for what you and your vehicle can do. The track we take offers magnificent views of the central Flinders Ranges area and you’ll also be looking at Wilpena Pound from the southern side. Then it’s time to tackle some challenging 4WD steep rocky climbs as we climb to the top of the range for some great photos of the Ranges country.


Day 2
We break camp and make our way passed the magnificent Wilpena Pound and on to Willow Springs station to set up camp. We then tackle ‘Skytrek’ a challenging 4WD track that takes around 6 hours to complete and offers magnificent panoramic views of the central Flinders Ranges from the Upalinna Lookout. You’ll be able to test out your 4WD skills a bit more and make sure you bring your cameras for some great photo opportunities.
Day 3
We head northwards to Blinman, the highest town in South Australia and some unique sights along the way. As a side tour we can do the Blinman Mine Tour (* takes 1 hour and prices vary depending on whose on this tour e.g. Singles, Families, Pensioners). Leaving Blinman we head west through Parachilna Gorge to the iconic Prairie Hotel and turn south to Merna Mora station. We’ll set up camp and have a ‘Happy Hour’ before a relaxing night around the camp fire.


Day 4
Today we tackle the Bunbinyanna Ranges 4WD track. This track skirts the western wall of Wilpena Pound and is typical of the steep, rocky and rugged Flinders Ranges tracks we see further north. We climb quickly and eventually find ourselves over looking the distant salt lake, Lake Torrens – the second largest salt lake in Australia. This is an excellent track to further test your skills you’ve learnt along the way, over the past few days. Then it’s back to get our trailers and head to Hawker via the Moralana Scenic Drive and visit the Wilpena Panorama Gallery for a unique painted view from St. Mary’s Peak in Wilpena Pound. Then it’s back to Quorn, so you can set up camp and relax!
