What are the best road trip destinations near Port Augusta?

Okay. So you're looking for an excuse to take your new ride for a spin? How about going on a day trip to Quorn? Roll down your windows and enjoy the cool wind in your hair on your way there. It's just 18 miles away. Among your first few stops here should be Flinders Ranges National Park Vistor Center, the Pichi Richi Railway and the Quorn Golf Course. The locals are also likely to point you in the direction of Whyalla Barson, 35 miles away. If you've only got time for one thing here, let it be Whyalla Foreshore.
