  • Arkaba Adventure
    On top of the Red Range at golden hour, you can look out past the grass trees, across Wilpena Pound towards the Elder Range. SOUTH AUSTRALIA Wilpena Pound Arkaba adventure Adelaide Nobody would dispute the fact Rimmed by spectacular ochre-coloured cliffs and wending its way that South Australia’s Flinders past ancient red gums and through wildflower-studded grasslands, Ranges are spectacular. this four-day Flinders Ranges walk is a captivating must-do. This region’s rugged terrain, rolling hills, deep valleys and ancient waterways offer a sense of true remoteness. Story and photography by Justin Walker Wilpena Pound and neighbouring Arkaba Conservancy are two of the ranges’ most popular destinations – par- ticularly for bushwalkers – with a variety of short, long and very long tracks to follow, allowing experienced walkers the chance to really immerse themselves in this region of Australia. But that doesn’t mean those with less time, fitness or walking experience can’t enjoy exploring these areas. In fact, joining a guided walking adventure here can lead to a richer experience…which is exactly what I discovered on the Arkaba Walk. STEP INTO GREATNESS Crossing some of Australia’s most spectacular and varied terrain, the fully guided and supported Arkaba Walk takes four days and three nights, staying at historic shepherd and station camps. It winds its way from the beautiful natural amphitheatre surrounded by mountains known as Wilpena Pound, and heads across the forested interior of the Pound itself, before traversing the private Arkaba Conservancy wilderness (see page 110) and finishing at the restored Arkaba Homestead.

PRINT POST APPROVED PP56500 1100079 Greening Gawler Two generations meet to help green our trails Richard Schmitz and Barbara Rundle •• •• •• •• ··7~7~w~·· •• •• •• •• PRESIDENT'S REPORT Vandalism continues to be a problem on The Trail , particularly on those sections close to the metropolitan area. At times the damage seems to be mindless and random , and other times, more malevolent, with logoes repositioned to send walkers on a course at right angles to the correct one. As with graffiti, possibly one of the best deterrents is to rectify the damage as soon as possible, so the persons responsible do not get any lasting gratification from their deeds. It is important therefore, in the interest of safety and as a deterrent to vandals, that any damage to the trails is reported as soon as possible, so immediate repairs can be organised. To this end, it is also important that we have a pool of volunteers willing to form working parties at short notice. Thanks to Shirley and Malcolm Tavender for prompt repair after a recent instance. As reported elsewhere, I recently had the pleasure of leading 27 walkers on a day walk to Marschalls Hut. Everybody was very favourably impressed, and a big thanks must go to the Officers from Rec. S.A. responsible, the workers from Bryan Place who did the restorations, and to property owner James Huppatz. The best way to give thanks is to use the Hut regularly, fill in the Log Book, and help with any maintenance requ ired .
