If you missed Part 2 last week, you can catch up by clicking here - Crossing Australia on the Eyre Highway
And so we leave Ceduna and continue along the Eyre Highway
through the small towns of Poochera and Minnipa and across the top of the Eyre
Peninsula. An approximation of our trail is shown here -
17km north of Minnipa is the granite Pildappa Rock. This is a lovely spot for a picnic or an
overnight bush camp. A track goes around the rock and on one side of the rock
you will see a wave formation - you an see it on the LHS of the collage below. The walk
over the rock is relatively easy and you will see various rock formations and fabulous
views over surrounding farmland and the Gawler Ranges. In a rock crevice near the picnic area is a
garden reputed to have been planted by the Kwaterski sisters who lived nearby
in 1938. It is thriving from run off from the rock.
You can see it in the bottom middle pic here.....
