Title: Sky Trek Closed [or closing]??
Post by: HEM19X on May 18, 2012, 09:00:01 AM

Currently in Broken Hill & was considering heading back into the Flinders but heard through the grapevine that Sky Trek had closed?

Apparently they "gifted" some land to a 3rd party & now those people have re-nigged on giving them access..effectivly meaning that Sky Trek can no longer function.

So, whats the story? Is it true?

Not closed but it now remains on Willow Springs property so its possibly shorter ? Yellow footed Rock Wallaby assoc needed the land or something .. Media release here - http://www.skytrekwillowsprings.com.au/ (http://www.skytrekwillowsprings.com.au/)

It is open, sort of. Some of the old bits have been closed but new tracks have been opened.
