Flinders Ranges Today
The Flinders Ranges attracts hundreds of bush walkers and campers each year where they stay in hotels, motels, holiday cottages, units or caravan parks. Travelling to the Flinders Ranges is very easy, as there are a number of roads that ensure convenient driving, and many buses, planes and trains. Camping is permitted only in or near the National Parks. One of the great joys of the Flinders Ranges is camping under a canopy of stars and watching them all night. The bush walks in the Flinders Ranges are some of the best in Australia, but maps are definitely needed since the trails are very dense and getting lost in the land is easy. Walking trails vary from 1-2 hour walks to 6-8 hour walks. Some of the trails lead to the highest peaks in Flinders Ranges, the highest of which is Saint Mary's Peak, 1,166 metres above sea level.
