HOW TO GET THERE
Ikara-Flinders Ranges National Park is situated approximately 450 kilometres north of Adelaide, in the central Flinders Ranges.
From Adelaide, take one of several routes to Hawker, then follow the signs to Wilpena.
If travelling from Leigh Creek in the north, head south to Parachilna, and enter the park from either the north or the west. You can also head east from Leigh Creek towards Vulkathunha-Gammon Ranges National Park, then follow the signs south to the park.
If approaching from Broken Hill, turn north at Yunta on the Arkaroola Road and follow signs to Blinman.
The main road through the park and into Wilpena Pound is sealed. Unsealed roads with changing surfaces occur throughout the park and may be affected by weather conditions. All public roads are accessible by two-wheel drive vehicles, caravans, and trailers.
Please drive slowly and respect other road users.
Please note: GPS Co-Ordinates are approximate and provided in most cases to get you to the National Park entrance. Once inside the park, there should be signs of the actual campgrounds. Failing this please check with National Parks for further directions.
