Wilpena Pound

Wilpena Pound is a big circle of mountains, like a crater, in the Flinders Ranges. In the middle of the mountains it's flat and people used to farm there. They had to build ladders so their chooks could climb into the trees to be safe from wild animals at night. We went for a walk to a lookout but it was rainy so we couldn't see the tops of the mountains. There is an aboriginal legend that the mountains are the bodies of two snakes.
