Splashout in the Flinders Ranges
No date set yet – check back soon!
Join Splashout for a 4 night/5 day Art Trip to Quorn in the stunning Flinders Ranges.
Flinders Ranges showcases some of the most dramatic and beautiful landscapes. The region is home to a wide range of native flora and fauna. We will capture some of these exciting features in our en plein air sessions plus the sweeping vistas, open skies and magnificent starry night skies (Vincent would be jealous). Fabulous photo opportunities, Pichi Richi Heritage Steam Train ride through the beautiful countryside; spectacular starlit audio/visual light show (complimentary Splashout bubbles included); gourmet catered meals and much more …
