This is the final set of walks ending at the Parachilna Trailhead on Saturday 29 August 2015.\n\n(All map numbers provided are taken from the Northern Guide\, Heysen Trail\, Spalding to Parachilna Gorge\, Book 2\, May 2010.)\n\nBASE LOCATION: \n\nRawnsley Park Station http://www.rawnsleypark.com.au/\n\nFRIDAY 21 AUGUST\n\nFor those travelling by bus\, the departure time is 9.00 am from the Central Bus Station\, 85 Franklin Street\, Adelaide. Please be at the bus station at 8.30 am for loading.\n\nSATURDAY 22 AUGUST (WALK 1 – Old Wonoka to Mt Little Stn)\n\nA classic Flinders Ranges creek walk\, the whole day is spent in Wonoka Creek which has been the site of a couple of major floods in recent years.\n\nSUNDAY 23 AUGUST (WALK 2 – Mt Little Stn to Moralana Dr)\n\nThis long section of the Trail (just over 30 kms) follows picturesque Mernmerna Creek and Slaty Creek to the Red Range campsite. After which it becomes a pretty walk with gentle undulations\, along creeklines and through native pine woodlands\, in the shadow of Elder Range and Mt Aleck.\n\nMONDAY 24 AUGUST (WALK 3 – Moralana Dr to Wilpena )\n\nThis is one of the very special walks of the Trail\, starting with a pretty creek walk through Black Gap\, before climbing the Pound Range to Bridle Gap\, where a look back provides spectacular views of Elder Range. Entering Flinders Range National Park\, it is a pleasant stroll across Wilpena Pound to complete the day.\n\nTUESDAY 25 AUGUST (WALK 4 – Wilpena to Bunyeroo)\n\nThis walk is entirely within the Flinders Ranges National Park with much of the day spent following the Wilcolo Track between the ABC range and the towering peaks of Wilpena Pound.\n\nWEDNESDAY 26 AUGUST (REST DAY)\n\nTHURSDAY 27 AUGUST (WALK 5 – Bunyeroo to Trezona)\n\nIn this section walkers climb from Bunyeroo Valley\, up to Yanyanna Hut\, passing several vantage points along the way that provide superb photo opportunities of the ranges behind. Continuing along Yanyanna Track\, the trail passes old settlers’ huts before entering the geologically significant Trezona area.\n\nFRIDAY 28 JUNE (WALK 6 – Trezona to Aroona Hut)\n\nThis section starts with a pleasant walk along Brachina and Enorama creeks past the Golden Spike and other significant geological sites\, before climbing to cross the ABC Range\, where spectacular views of the Heysen Range unfold.\n\nSATURDAY 29 AUGUST (WALK 7 – Aroona Hut to Parachilna)\n\nThis final section of the trail follows Aroona Valley to the watershed dividing it from the Parachilna Creek catchment to the north. It then follows the valley between ABC Range and Heysen Range\, past abandoned mines to the final stile at the Parachilna Trailhead. This walk is a pleasant amble\, perfect for reflecting on the years and kilometres taken to get here\, and the friendships made along the way.\n\nThere will be celebration at the end of the walk followed by a celebration dinner at Rawnsley Park. Dress is ‘dressy casual’.\n\nSUNDAY 30 AUGUST\n\nBus returns to Adelaide leaving Rawnsley Park at 8.30 am.\n\nTHEME\n\nWe’ve seen a lot of red arrows along the way. They’ve been in all sorts of places and a constant companion. At times they’ve been hard to find but their presence has given us a means to achieve our way in relative safety. The theme is therefore RED ARROWS in honour of our markers for 1200 km along the Heysen Trail and the people who put them there.
