We spent Easter at Merna Mora station, 40 km north of Hawker, in the Flinders Ranges. This was with the Suzuki 4wd club.
Because of all the rain over summer, the Flinders Ranges were very green. The views are of course magnificent.
Like many stations in the Flinders, Merna Mora station farms tourists as well as stock, and has 4 4wd tracks on it, camping and accommodation. we did 3 tracks, the Heritage Track, the Bunbinyunna Track, and the Lake Torrens Track.
The Heritage track and Bunbinyunna track were in the foothills of the south west corner of Wilpena Pound (on the western side), and had spectacular views, and some challenges for the drivers. Lake Torrens Track went through flat land out to the Lake. Another lake crossed off the list. ( we have now done Lake Eyre, Lake Gairdner and Lake Torrens).
Our camp site was on the edge of the Moralana Creek, and we had fires each night.
On the way home, we stopped at Mambray Creek, Mt Remarkable National park. A great spot, which we had never been to. Even had solar hot water, so you could have a warm shower in the middle of the day.
