Multi day Hikes South Australia

Postby bcolver » Fri 01 Feb, 2019 1:41 pm

HI I am looking to do a multi day hike within a couple of hours drive of Adelaide in the last week of March. I will have tent. The two people going have a good fitness level

Is the Flinders range good for this?

Any pointers would be very welcome

Thanks alot
Ben

You could do sections of the Heysen Trail starting at Cape Jervis
Alternatively I’d do a walk in Mt Remarkable National Park this is a couple of hours from Adelaide

Flinders Ranges is a bit far and still too hot.

Deep Creek Cons Pk is close to Cape Jervis with speccie views https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source= ... 9027466684

or there's also the new trail at the west end of Kangaroo Island.

Yep I reckon the Heysen Trail starting from Cape Jervis and going to Victor (depending on how much time you have) would be the best bet.

+1 for Heysen trail sections.
During the bush fire season (ends April in most areas) you're not allowed to camp in Mount Remarkable NP, so day walks only.
