Voller Vorfreude starteten wir unseren Ausflug in den Ikara-Flinders Ranges Nationalpark.🏞️⛰️
Die Flinderskette ist ein fast 500 Kilometer langer Gebirgszug im Norden von Südaustralien (SA). Bereits die Fahrt dorthin war von einigen Eindrücken geprägt. Nebst den tollen Blicken auf die roten Felsen, gab es, vom Flinders Highway aus, dutzende Emus zu sehen, die einem auch mal vors Auto laufen können.🪶
Apropos: Nach einer unübersichtlichen Kurve stand solch ein gefiederter Sportsfreund mitten auf der Strasse und machte nicht den Eindruck fliehen zu wollen. Mit einem waghalsigen Ausweichmanöver konnten wir zum Glück einen Crash um wenige Zentimeter verhindern.💥
Wir fuhren den gesamten Nachmittag durch den Nationalpark und durften viele Kängurus beobachten, ehe wir unseren Schlafplatz mitten im Wald aufsuchten. Nachtsüber machte sich die Entfernung zur Küste auch temperaturmässig bemerkbar. Das Thermometer sank nicht unter 27 Grad.🔥
Heute Morgen fuhren wir auf direktem Weg auf die Yorke Peninsula. Die Strasse führte uns durch den südlichsten Teil der Flinderskette und brachte uns einmal mehr zum Staunen.
Hier am Wauraltee Beach 🐚 verbringen wir unsere nächste Nacht, welche gleichzeitig unsere letzte auf einem Strand sein wird, bevor es uns morgen nach Adelaide weiterzieht.
Wir werden die Sonnenuntergänge aus dem Dachzelt vermissen.🌅Read more

Wauraltee Beach

Well, this was an experience, we were going to camp on the beach, reviews said it was easy. We got bogged and decided that we would chicken out and stay at the campsites which were just above the beach. So we are now in a sheltered camp just behind the dunes with a short walk to the beach. As it a long weekend and the start of the school holidays it is starting to get busy on the beach but we will stay here for a week as school holidays are not an easy time to find camps. We have had a few shinglebacks come to visit, which is doing Megas head in. We used our time here to investigate the York Peninsula. We drove to Minlaton, Yorketown, Marian Bay, Stansbury, Edithburgh, Warooka over the week, getting a flat tyre and having to go back to Minlaton to get it repaired. The weather beats us, and we decided that the beach with the wind and rain was not the best place to be, so we moved on.Read more

I don't think there are many places you can camp legally on the beach anymore. What a treat. There had to be over 60 vans and camper trailers along the beach at any given time. The water here was actually warmish for the first time. Only 1 high and low tide every 24hrs. Something to do with the Southern and Pacific Oceans meeting.

It's a wonderful summer holiday spot. Plus, it's free. If you camp up behind the dunes, it's council land. They charge you $20 per night. The beach camping in crown land no changes.

Spent lots of time swimming and walking the beach. Would have stayed longer, but the winds were picking up again over the weekend. Not so pleasant on the beach with gale force winds.

Very pleased with our old van and car. Pulled out of the softer sand without a problem. Not like next to us. 8 Max tracks. 3 men with shovels to get their off-road van out.Read more
