Flinders Chase National Park. DON’T MISS THIS!!!!!

Remarkable Rocks,

The Remarkable Rocks are an icon of South Australia, one

that many Australians could probably recognise if shown a picture. But it isn't

until you visit them yourself that you really understand what makes them

so remarkable. The strangeness of their weathered shapes sitting on on a bare rock,

surrounded by low scrub and little else. New boardwalks to rocks, easy walking.
