WORDS: LINDA LEE RATHBUN IMAGES: STEVEN DAVID MILLER/NATURAL WANDERS THE SOUTHERN AND NORTHERN FLINDERS RANGES HAVE TO BE SEEN TO BE BELIEVED. THIS DETAILED GUIDE IS A MUST FOR ANY TRAVELLER TO THIS ANCIENT LANDSCAPE. We know you love RVing, but how do you feel about geology? More to the point, what does one have to do with the other? In the southern and northern Flinders Ranges, it’s all about geology, otherwise known as seriously old rock formations. We begin with Ikara-Flinders Ranges NP because it comes first driving via Hawker. 48 \ Rawnsley Park Station is just to the south of the park’s boundary and plenty of RVers enjoy staying there with a larger van. However, basing yourself right in the park at Wilpena provides easy access to all those wonderful walks, day trips and outstanding wildlife viewing.
