Seemingly unending expanses of desert, contrast starkly with the bright blue waters of the <strong>Southern Ocean<\/strong> on the <strong>Eyre Highway<\/strong> across the <strong>Nullarbor Desert<\/strong> to the west; while beautiful beaches, winding roads and towering mountain ranges dominate the eastern regions of the state.<\/p>\n<p>Travelling from the south east corner of the state and heading west you firstly have the small town of <strong>Mount Gambier<\/strong>. An afternoon stop here is enough time to get a feel for the place. Undoubtedly the biggest attraction is the \u2018<strong>Blue Lake<\/strong>\u2019, just outside the main town centre. Situated in an extinct volcanic crater, the Blue Lake is filled with the crystal clear water, filtered underground as it passes slowly beneath the city through the limestone. Each year in November the lake starts its colour change from winter somber blue to brilliant turquoise blue and back to somber blue again from March.<\/p>\n<p>The entire town gets its drinking water from the system that fills the Blue Lake, and a few hours or afternoon spent exploring the area is a must.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/bikeroundoz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/map_south-australia.png&#8221; title_text=&#8221;map_south australia&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; fullwidth=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_fullwidth_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/bikeroundoz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/sa_bluelake.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;sa_bluelake&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_fullwidth_image][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|true&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|10px||10px|false|true&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Further on up the coast and just south of <strong>Adelaide<\/strong>, is the fascinating little isle of <strong>Kangaroo Island<\/strong>. A short hop across the \u2018<strong>Backstairs Passage<\/strong>\u2019 on a ferry, it is an isolated haven for various wild creatures and an exercise in off-highway riding. There is only one surfaced road on the whole island, which runs from one end to the other in a giant loop.<\/p>\n<p>If you stick to the black-top then you\u2019ll get the same experience as the bus loads of tourists.

Under siege from every quarter by leafy green parks, Adelaide has a relaxed and friendly atmosphere which belies its metropolitan stature. It has everything you would expect from a regional capital, so a few days spent exploring the various aspects of Adelaide\u2019s character would be time well spent.<\/p>\n<p>Getting out into the hills to the east of Adelaide should be high on your list of things to do. Beautiful countryside bisected by narrow, winding roads, which lead to a great number of fascinating little towns and villages. The Germanic influence on the area is extremely evident in this region, with many of the towns being obviously German in design; and many of the inhabitants directly descended from the first immigrants. Wine is the main industry of note for this area of Adelaide and many a happy hour could be spent \u2018testing\u2019 the many varieties available.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; fullwidth=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_fullwidth_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/bikeroundoz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/general_1200gsw-hills.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;general_1200gsw hills&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_fullwidth_image][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|true&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|10px||10px|false|true&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Just a bit further up the coast is the <strong>Yorke Peninsula<\/strong>; an exposed and windswept finger of land, jutting out into the <strong>Spencer Gulf<\/strong>. Personally I found the region fairly ordinary, but that was just the impression I got and your experience will no doubt be totally different. The best area of the peninsula in my opinion was the <strong>Innes National Park<\/strong>, right at the very end of the peninsula. Sheltered, sandy coves, great beaches and interesting historical remnants make for an engaging few days spent in the park. Bear in mind that if you get down there, facilities are limited; so take everything you need with you and remember to take it all out again.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Port Augusta<\/strong> stands at the cross roads of traffic heading east-west and north-south.

That would be a mistake in my opinion as you would completely bypass the hidden gem of the Eyre Peninsula. Turning south west from Port Augusta on the <strong>Lincoln Highway<\/strong> takes you down to the bottom of the peninsula following the coastline, then back up the western coast, rejoining the Eyre Highway at <strong>Ceduna<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>There are some great little seaside towns along the way and if you don\u2019t mind the occasional sandy stretch of gravel road, then there are also some great secluded camping spots right on the shore. Port Lincoln is the regional centre for the peninsula and the <strong>Lincoln National Park<\/strong> to the south east is a beautiful area. Visited by only the most curious of tourists, it is mostly a haven for locals during the weekends and so if you want the place to yourself, visit during the middle of the week.

Plenty of national parks and points of interest litter the route of the road, a multitude of opportunities for whiling away the day.<\/p>\n<p>Riding north from Port Augusta up the<strong> Stuart Highway<\/strong> you are heading into the <strong>Outback<\/strong> and the scenery becomes somewhat more barren. The <strong>Flinders Ranges<\/strong> are one of the nicest areas of outback for my money. The roads in the area are all gravel but they take you through deep red gorges with narrow creeks and loads of wildlife. It feels like the &#8216;real&#8217; Australia and the stars at night are jaw-droppingly bright. <strong>Wilpena<\/strong> has a resort if you prefer a little more comfort but camping in one of the remote camping areas next to a creek and seeing the kangaroos, birds and other wildlife is a beautiful experience.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to see the area but have a road bike then take a 4WD tour from Wilpena.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; fullwidth=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_fullwidth_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/bikeroundoz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/sa_flinders-ranges.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;sa_flinders ranges&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_fullwidth_image][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|true&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|10px||10px|false|true&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Another important stop on the highway north has to be <strong>Coober Pedy<\/strong>. A very interesting but somewhat visually unappealing opal mining town, positioned right in the middle of the desert. The name Coober Pedy comes from a local Aboriginal term &#8216;kupa piti&#8217;, meaning &#8216;white man in a hole&#8217;; very appropriate when you consider the predominant industry!<\/p>\n<p>Temperatures here can be very high, with 50 degrees centigrade not uncommon in summer. My advice would be to arrive in the afternoon, book a half-day tour for the following day and visit the Greek restaurant in town for your evening meal. Don&#8217;t forget the underground hotel for a nightcap! The bar is incredibly atmospheric!<\/p>\n<p>A leisurely stroll after dinner is definitely not recommended. There are over 4 million holes in the surrounding desert where prospectors have searched and are still searching, for opals!
