The Heli-swag Experience at Rawnsley Park Station

harpsFrom March to October, guests at Rawnsley Park Station can enjoy a unique heli-swag experience with Helivista.

Departing from Rawnsley in the late afternoon, guests will take a scenic helicopter flight past Rawnsley Bluff and the Wilpena Pound before landing on the Chace Range, where the can watch the sun set over spectacular views whilst staff set up their swag and camp for the night. As the helicopter leaves for the night, guests are provided with a 2-course camp meal to enjoy next to a warming campfire and the starry outback night sky. At dawn, your guests can prepare their own fireside breakfast before the helicopter arrives for a 10-minute flight back to Rawnsley Park Station.

Offering such an incredible and memorable experience, its no surprise to hear that Heli-camping is fast becoming the hero product for the Flinders Ranges, and Rawnsley is the perfect base to experience it from.
The Heli-swag experience is also incorporated into the three and five day Walking the Flinders Ranges guided walks.

tcwetatttOne of New Zealand’s 22 Great Rides, the Timber Trail Lodge has been singled out for it’s environmental and community minded approach to business.

The lodge is located deep within Purerora Forest Park at the midway point of the 84km Timber Trail cycleway. Chris Roberts, Tourism Industry Aoteraroa Chief Executive recently stayed at the lodge calling it a ‘wonderful example of how well-conceived businesses can operate sustainably in New Zealand’s wilderness places.”

Timber Trail Lodge is located at Piropiro, the site of an abandoned native forest milling village. The remote and off-grid location embraces solar power along with programmes for recycling, predator pest control and native reforestation.

The lodge also places a strong focus on employing locals and working with small local businesses such as shuttle and bike rental operators. The Timber Trail Lodge’s recognition for sustainability is a key example of how tourism in New Zealand is managing balancing increasing visitor demand and caring for the environment, supporting local communities and delivering outstanding experiences.
