Re-Routes of the Heysen Trail

Mapsheet 8, Mernmerna Creek to Parachilna Gorge (Edition 2, 2020)

Occasionally, due to weather or maintenance issues, it is necessary to realign sections of the Heysen Trail. Minor reroutes, necessitated by such things as sand blowouts in coastal areas, protection of native vegetation, erosion control, or requests from landholders, are also frequently carried out.

1. Mapsheet 8C: Yuluna realignment, Ikara Flinders Ranges National Park, April 2023

The Heysen Trail east of Aroona ruins has been realigned to follow the northern section of the Yuluna loop walk trail.

The re-route relates to both the August 2015 and the November 2020 editions of Mapsheet 8C.

Although this is a relatively small change, (a distance of 2.6 kms) the walk is improved as follows the Yuluna hike and therefore avoids a section of the Bulls Creek Track.

We do not have a map of the reroute at this stage.
