South Australia is now home to Australia’s largest national park as well as four other new national parks, with today’s official proclamation of Munga-Thirri – Simpson Desert National Park, Wapma Thura — Southern Flinders Ranges National Park, Lake Frome National Park and the upgrade of Cleland and Deep Creek to national parks.
Visitors will soon get extra opportunities to mountain bike through some of Cudlee Creek’s most challenging terrain, experience upgraded accommodation in Belair and wake up in the beautiful Limestone Cost region at South Australia’s newest glamping site.
Granite Island Recreation Park will be closed at night for the 21st consecutive year throughout Schoolies Week between 19 to 21 November.
New specialty tours, pop-up and seasonal experiences and events could be set to grace iconic South Australian tourism places thanks to a new $550,000 round in a State Government grant funding to activate nature and heritage-based tourism initiatives.
Two of South Australia’s well-known national park visitor attractions were recently recognised at this year’s Tourism Industry Council of South Australia, South Australian Tourism Awards, with Cleland Wildlife Park being awarded silver and the Naracoorte and Tantanoola Caves taking out bronze in the Major Tourist Attraction category.
