Flinders Ranges: one of Australia's most scenic and wonderfully diverse regions, the Flinders Ranges are probably the most accessible outback region of Australia. This accessibility however, does not alter the beauty or majesty of this wonderful mountain range area. In fact, many sites are very significant to both pastoralists, and environmentalists. The Flinders Ranges National Park conserves the central section of these incredible ranges. Walking tracks criss cross the park, including the challenging climb to St Mary's Peak, one of the highest points along the rim of Wilpena Pound. 

Coober Pedy: Coober Pedy is a very small town with a big reputation for being the most eccentric place in Australia, if not the world. There is very little about Coober Pedy that can be described as normal, and it the town's uniqueness, and not just the quality of the opals mined around the town, that has made it a magnet for outback travellers.
While many visitors come for the opals, the majority come to experience the eccenticity. For starters, the first tree ever seen in the town was welded together from scrap iron. The local golf course is completely free of grass and golfers take a small piece of "turf" around to use for teeing off. The place is so hot, most dwellings are underground.

The Oodnadatta Track: without doubt Australia's most famous outback highway, the Oodnadatta Track is a stretch of good dirt road from Marree through to Oodnadatta. It follows a traditional aboriginal trading route, making it one of the oldest continuously used roads in the world. Remnants of the many railway sidings of the original Ghan and Overland Telegraph repeater stations are scattered along the track, making the journey a history's lover's delight. Along the route there are mound springs, Lake Eyre (Australia's largest lake; 4WD access only), the biggest cattle station in the world (Anna Creek Station) and an ever-changing countryside that is both harsh and beautiful.

Wilpena Pound: Amidst the vibrant colours of the 800 million-year-old quartzite and limestone outcrop that is the Flinders Ranges lies Wilpena Pound, a natural amphitheatre 17km long and 7km wide. Located 429 kilometres north of Adelaide, SA in the heart of the Flinders Ranges National Park, the Pound is the most northern point with access via a sealed road in this part of the Flinders Ranges.
Wilpena Pound is one of the most popular sites in the Flinders Ranges for international tourists to visit the outback because of the large development that has occurred at the Wilpena Pound Resort on the eastern side of Wilpena Pound and Rawnsley Park Station on the western side. There are many modern facilities there that makes it appealing for people who are not familiar with the semi-arid conditions.
