Mike,
One thing might be worth mentioning about the kids.
On our Flinders Ranges family trip the bushwalking was our biggest
letdown. I was selfish and wanted to do all the 'old favourites'
in the list of Trails to do. Relive a lot of childhood memories.
And show the kids the places I loved the best.
With a 5 y/o and 7 y/o in tow though it's just not possible.
We restricted ourselves to the 'Easy' 1-3hr walks first.
I'm glad we did!
We found that my wife and I would take turns carrying the 5 y/o
about half of it and the 7 y/o would struggle towards the end
of the way back. Even on a moderately easy walk.
We never got to show them places like St Mary's Peak for example
so we ended the 1 week holiday with some mixed feelings.
Still, we had a really wonderful time, kids thoroughly enjoyed it.
Steve
