TRAVEL SPECIAL: THE DESTINATIONS

RIC WALLIS


Arkaroola, South Australia

Apart from the wonderful gorges,
amazing rock formations and the ability to get
high vantage points overlooking fantastic vistas,
it’s the feeling you get from just standing in the
landscape. Some of the rock around Arkaroola is
ancient even in terms of the inconceivable length
of geological time, a feeling similar to the feeling
you get from staring into the universe on a clear
outback night.


DON’T MISS 
The four and a half hour ridgetop tour. This is a se-
rious 4wd tour with a guide, who fills you in on the
geology and f lora and fauna, before brewing a cuppa
at the top of the ranges. 

BEST TIME TO VISIT 
In my opinion, the best time to visit is in the cooler
months. there’s less heat, and less f lies.
