August 2020, section numbers altered:
- Sections previously numbered 51 to 55 have been renumbered to accomodate what was previously Section 50, from Eyre Depot to Buckaringa, to be split into two smaller more manageable sections: Section 50 Eyre Depot to Warren Gorge, and Section 51 Warren Gorge to Buckaringa. So what was Section 51 is now Section 52, and what was 52 now 53, and what was 53 now 54, and what was 54 now 55.
- Sections previously numbered 55 and 56 have been combined into Section 56, from Mt Little Station to Moralana Scenic Drive.
Region: Flinders Ranges
This is a predominantly flat walk below rocky outcrops. The trail then leads across Willochra Plain to Partacoona Station.
The Buckaringa Wildlife Sanctuary will be temporarily closed from the evening of Wednesday 4th October through to the morning of Tuesday 10th October 2023.
As the Heysen Trail passes through the sanctuary, that section of the trail will also be closed to walkers.
The trail enters the southern boundary of the sanctuary at grid reference 195 440. The trail exits the northern section of the sanctuary at grid ref 257 490.
