Final Plan The Theme for this Plan is Journeys, Tracks and Trails 4.0 THE THEME FOR THIS PLAN IS JOURNEYS, TRACKS AND TRAILS This theme recognises that the Flinders Ranges and Outback South Australia are key places that Australian and international visitors wish to include as part of a longer journey of exploration. They are also destinations for South Australians taking a longer break or holiday. It highlights the fact that for visitors there are no borders or boundaries to their journeys. The Flinders Ranges and Outback SA tourism region is a construct developed to assist in marketing and managing a specific geographic area. It is incumbent on those in the region to ensure that this construct does not become a barrier to developing seamless experiences for visitors. Many of our visitors are on a journey to discover the heart of Australia. Outback South Australia is directly linked by roads and iconic tracks to Queensland, New South Wales, Western Australia and the Northern Territory. It is critical that visitors are able to receive consistent and accurate advice and information at any point on their journey and that their experience is not marked by territorial disputes. It is the experiences not administrative boundaries that are relevant to the traveller. These disputes can also characterise discussions between and within regions in South Australia. They make no sense. Our role in building tourism is to provide a range of choices for visitors and to make sure they are aware of the kinds of experience each choice offers. The more alternative routes, loops and links we provide the more likely it is that one of these will appeal to a prospective visitor. Map One shows the kinds of routes that self-drive and coach tours will take to travel to and through the region. The thick black lines reflect the primary routes – mainly on bitumen or the relatively accessible tracks such as Oodnadatta, Birdsville and Strezlecki. The dotted lines show alternative routes. For example travellers leaving Adelaide have a choice of Highway One to Port Augusta or routes we could call B1 and B2 through Clare branching off either to Gladstone, Wirrabarra, Melrose and Wilmington or to Jamestown, Orroroo and then joining the main route from Broken Hill via Peterborough to Hawker via Carrieton or Cradock or Port Augusta and areas further north via Wilmington. Each of these routes offers travellers a very different experience enabling townships along the way to showcase their attractions to encourage people to stop for a meal, to visit an attraction and spend a night. These alternative routes need to be actively promoted by FROSAT, regional tourism operators and Councils. Beyond these roads and tracks are the trails people will take to get right off the highway whether this be on bike, foot, horse or camel. The Heysen and Mawson Trails are the best known of these, but many other areas have walking trails that provide access to lookouts and points of interest including town and heritage walks.
