Mosaic Monday - Lake Eyre South

Lake Eyre South, South Australia

Lake Eyre , officially known as Kati Thanda–Lake Eyre, contains the lowest natural point in Australia, at approximately 15 m (49 ft) below sea level (AHD), and, on the rare occasions that it fills, is the largest lake in Australia, covering 9,500 km (3,668 sq mi).(Wikipedia)


We drove to Lake Eyre South from our campsite at Farina, a distance of 
approximately 200 km.





Along the way there are a few sculptures

Plane Henge

Plane Henge consists of two Beechcraft Barron aircraft, brought by road from Victoria’s Moorabbin Airport and erected with the help of around 50 people

  2. What amazing things to see! I'm so glad you are sharing your travels there because it's a country I will probably never get to visit! Enjoy your week!

  3. Beautiful photos of Lake Eyre South. I love the plane henge, very interesting to see and the ruin in the last image. It looks pretty sturdy even with no roof.
    Enjoy the new week.

    And I do like seeing more of our wide (and very varied) land. More thanks.

  5. It seems so isolated but untouched by man and beautiful all at the same time. I know there are sculptures and stuff, but it still feels isolated but safe.
