Lake Eyre spectacular five-day outback tour with Gekko Safari
Sponsored
The influx of water from ex-cyclone Kirrily has sparked a remarkable transformation across western Queensland, with rivers and creeks in the Lake Eyre Basin swelling and flowing southward towards Kati Thanda-Lake Eyre.
This natural event has led to moderate flooding in several rivers such as the Cooper Creek, Thomson, Barcoo, Georgina, and Diamantina, all contributing to the replenishment of Kati Thanda-Lake Eyre.
With water travelling from as far as Alice Springs, Mt Isa, Cloncurry, and Longreach, we're reminded of the interconnectedness of Australia's waterways. It's a reminder of the profound impact of weather systems on the landscape and ecosystems.
An abundance of pelicans and the arrival of banded stilts, which have travelled vast distances to partake in the flourishing ecosystem, further emphasises the significance of the water influx.
Beyond the landscape's physical transformation of the landscape, this natural phenomenon is about the intricate web of life it supports, from the smallest organisms to the majestic birds that grace the skies.
Right now presents a unique opportunity for travellers to witness the rejuvenation of the outback as it comes to life. From the thriving wildlife to the scenic landscapes, there's much to experience and appreciate during this time.
Discover a natural phenomenon
Gekko Safari's five-day tours, including visits to the Flinders Ranges and Cooper Pedy, along with a flight over Lake Eyre with Wrights Air, offer an incredible chance to immerse oneself in the beauty and majesty of this natural spectacle.
The forecast of additional rainfall in Queensland and outback South Australia in the next few weeks will most certainly lead to more runoff into the lake, increasing its water levels.
Now is the moment to seize the opportunity and immerse yourself in the splendour of the outback as it flourishes.
