Best outback experience: Flinders Ranges, SA
The Flinders Ranges have been million of years in the making but its tourism infrastructure is just coming into its own.
The federal government plans to promote it on the international tourism stage in 2012 and local authorities are pushing the Southern Flinders' great food and wine experiences, from cellar doors to farm-gates and pub grub.
Small companies are offering increasingly interesting tour options, such as Australian Walking Tours' new, six-day guided hikes that combine rugged exercise and superb gorge scenery with creature comforts.
For a quintessential slice of Australian adventure, it's hard to beat.
