Section 56: Mt Little Station to Moralana Scenic Drive
This very long section of the Trail follows picturesque Mernmerna and Slaty creeks to the Red Range campsite. If you are accessing the Trail from Mount Little Station you’ll pass rock pools along Mayo Gorge which were used in scenes for the 2007 movie Lucky Miles. You’ll have a pretty walk with gentle undulations, along creek beds and through native pine woodlands, in the shadow of Elder Range and Mount Aleck. This long 32.4 km walk can’t be shortened due to public access restrictions on Private Property.
Red Range walk-in campsite can only be accessed from the Trail. The nearest vehicle access points are 15.4 km south of the campsite at Mount Little Station/Mayo Gorge and 15 km north of the campsite where the Heysen Trail crosses Moralana Scenic Drive.
