Gawler Ranges

Gawler Ranges exhibits a lot of the volcanic rhyolite (organic pipes). The area is remote, I haven't seen anyone for days that I have spend here.

Nullarbor Plain

Nullarbor Plain is a giant limestone karst. Flat and inhospitable, 1200 km from west to east. The main thing to experience here is different sense of scale and space.

Bunda Cliffs

On the shore, east form Eucla, there are 90m tall and 100km long Bunda Cliffs and 190km long and 80m high Baxter Cliffs to the West.

Lake Gairdner

Lake Gairdner is Australia’s third largest salt lake. It is over 160 km long and 48 km wide, surrounded by the red foothills of the Gawler Ranges.

I used satellite google maps to find a few islands and ride my bike to them. On my way back, I get confused spotting the place where I left my car. I end up reaching a river of wet salt, that I had to follow, and was unable to ride a bike. It take a while to get back.

Olary

Scenery from the streets of Olary. The fire swept through the town in Nov 25, 2015. Lots of structures have burned to the ground.

Eyre Peninsula

This beautiful shore don't see a lot of visitors. Its been said and true, here you have beaches all to yourself. And if there is someone there, just go to the one farther on.
