During October 2022 we travelled a total of 5000 km on a round trip from Brisbane to visit the Flinders Ranges. From Brisbane we first travelled due west on outback roads to end up in Innamincka in South Australia. The wet season provided a unique experience with filled creeks and water holes, green vegetation and colourful wildflowers in the normally arid and dusty areas of western Queensland and South Australia. After driving south on the Strzelecki track, we spent three nights at Arkaroola Village in a bush camp. There are several hiking tracks and also opportunities to explore by road. Some (road) tracks are 4x4 only.

I have spent around 2 months over 30 years or so in or around Arkaroola and we went back 4 years ago and going again in July. Last time we went from the Gold Coast Via Adelaide and followed almost your exact route, leaving Balcanoona and going to the strez track, Inamincka and back via the venture way. I saw you actually camped in my exact same camp site I use each time in the creek in Arkaroola...lol. The last time I did echo camp was on motorbikes before you had to pay for it and I see it hasnt changed. Watching your videos was both reminiscing and also makes me look forward even more to going back in a few months. cheers. Fun Fact I have only ever got two punctures ever from 4wding and both were almost in the exact same spot about 3 kms from Arkaroola village on the main road from a pointy rock. You definitely want to go there with good tyres and at least one spare as those rocks are sharp!

Nice video, thanks for sharing your journey. I really like Arkaroola . Doug Sprig does an amazing astronomy show when the weather suitable. Looking forward to getting back out there later this year.

Thanks for watching. We will put the astronomy show on the list for the next visit.

Insane fuel prices in regional SA, I've driven through that part of Australia and the price of petrol can vary by 60 cents a litre depending on your proximity to Port Augusta or Port Pirie, but it's the same distribution network Perry's

Very expensive. I suppose remoteness add to the cost of delivery and on site operations. But still glad to get fuel when you need it.
