This place can be accessed by private cars and taxis. Buses operated by the state go to these ranges twice in a week.

During the spring season the landscape of these ranges are very attractive with flourishing wildflowers which cover the country side.

Species adjusted to a semi-arid climate constitute a major part of the flora and fauna of this region, which includes black oak, sugar gum, mallee and cypress-pine. Moister areas closer to Wilpena Pound are home to Guinea flowers, greenvilleas and ferns.
