Flinders Chase National Park is a must for any Kangaroo Island parks adventure. This vast area of wilderness features the iconic Remarkable Rocks, Admirals Arch and a long-nosed fur seal colony.
After being devastated by the January 3, 2020 firestorm, the 4.5-kilometer walking track along the Black Swamp and Rocky River has been rebuilt, allowing visitors to explore the habitat where the island’s platypus reside.
Access: This walk begins at Flinders Chase Visitor Centre.
