This flight takes about 4 and a 1/2 hours (allow 6 hours round trip) and offers excellent views of Outback South Australia. Beginning with a scenic flight over Aroona Valley and Brachina Gorge, you pass over the Leigh Creek Coal Fields, Marree (the start of the Birdsville Track) and Lake Eyre. Landing at remote William Creek (population 10 at last count), you’ll refresh yourself at the pub with lunch then return flying over Andamooka and Lake Torrens.

If the water is entering Lake Eyre North via the Warburton Groove, this may be seen in the distance from our standard flight, an extra 30 minutes return takes you to the top of the Lake to see the channel.
