Starting from the Aroona Campground at the end of Aroona Valley Road, Ikara-Flinders Ranges National Park, this walk takes you to Red Hill Lookout and back via the Bulls Gap Track. One of South Australia's most popular tourist destinations, Ikara-Flinders Ranges National Park is home to ancient rugged mountain ranges, dramatic gorges, peaceful tree-lined creeks and abundant wildlife. This moderately challenging walk initially follows a section of the Heysen Trail, then branches off and crosses Yuluna Creek before climbing to the lookout at the top of Red Hill, which offers spectacular views of the Aroona Valley, the Heysen Range and the ABC Range, with the peaks of Wilpena Pound in the distance to the south. The walk begins from the Aroona Campground, which is suitable for tents, caravans, camper vans and camper trailers and has toilets and fire pits. This walk consists of narrow walking trails and fire tracks, with uneven natural surfaces, compacted natural surfaces, steep hills and creek crossings, suitable for moderate fitness levels. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
