Climate

We mainly visit the Flinders Ranges in South Australia. Generally speaking, the weather is fine in the Flinders Ranges and there is plenty of sun. We go in the coolest part of the year as this is the most comfortable time for trekking in the Flinders Ranges. Daytime temperatures in April – May are mild while June - July can be cool to cold. From August to October, the days get progressively warmer and late in the season the occasional hot day may require us to modify the days trekking to suit the conditions. In the desert, night time temperatures can be cold at any time of year. From late May through to early August, the evenings can be very cold (down to minus 5C° / 24F°). On rare occasions, rain can force us to alter our schedule.
