The Arckaringa Hills, nicknamed " Painted Desert ", in some of the most amazing scenery in the Central Deserts. It's a group of colored mesas standing alone in the flat gibber plain around. The diversity of hues is truly impressive.
It's also along the route from Cadney Park Roadhouse to the Arckaringa Hills that we met our first wild kangaroos: they all seemed to get active around 5pm when the heat of the day started to subside a bit. We stayed in a homestead where the people were actually hunting kangaroos at night with large lamps on 4WDs. Not so nice... But kangaroos tend to be too numerous, it seems.
