Leigh McClusky heads outback for a ride in the Flinders Ranges. It's a new experience which gives you a taste of the extremely popular Great Australian Cattle Drive without having to spend "days" in the saddle. "A Day In The Saddle" tours are literally that, "a" day in the saddle - but over the course of a few days you're guaranteed to get a wonderful taste of the outback's rugged beauty. Leigh rides through an amazing diversity of desert landscapes and learns that visitors can camp out 'drover style' in a swag or bunk down in the rustic Nilpena Shearers Quarters. Dinner is also served in a historic stone woolshed. The team at the Prairie hotel has also teamed up with this experience so, you can choose to begin or end your tour at this famous outback pub. Explore the Prairie's internationally-renowned bush tucker menu, relax in a comfy room, enjoy a beer with the locals and dose of good old fashioned country hospitality.
