The Limestone Coast
The Coorong is part of the Limestone Coast region of South Australia stretching from The Murray right down to the Victorian border. It’s pretty sparsely populated, a few town here and there to break up the ride but not all that much. It’s pretty flat too and to be honest the least interesting ride in quite a while. It’s probably just the wind skewing my perspective!
On the way into Kingston S.E. in keeping with Australia penchant for big kitsch attractions there is a giant Lobster. This thing is huge, very well done but it’s a pretty ugly creature to begin with so…. Obligatory picture take I moved on. As I started to get closer to Mt. Gambier hills became visible in the distance, covered in pine forests. Outside a place called Millicent I camped in the woods. Pitching my tent on the pine needles was great, it made for a lovely sleep. It was so soft and comfortable and the scent of the trees so nice. The only problem camping in the woods was that it was really dark even when the sun was still up and I managed to walk into a branch splitting my open in the process
