If samey work convos are causing you strife, it might be time to renew your passport and step off the beaten track for a while. Book your ticket to Merty and you'll be in a great spot to experience the envy-inducing mountains of Flinders Ranges!
It's 1,100 kilometres to the northwest of Canberra, the capital city of Australia.
When it's time to unleash the adventurer within, sign yourself up for some mountain biking. That said, there aren't many better ways to explore the local region than with a little hiking.
If you're searching for a leisurely pursuit, nothing can top venturing outdoors and going camping or wildlife watching.
Making your own itinerary means you're in charge, but occasionally it's a relief to let somebody else take control for a while. Guided nature walks and wildlife spotting tours offer an effortless way to explore the region.
Our holiday itineraries often rely on the weather forecast, but thankfully that isn't the case with everything. Rain, hail or shine, head over to the region's art galleries and craft workshops any time.
Searching for an outdoor activity that will please everyone? The surrounding area features some pleasant open-air exhibits and street art.
Eating is one of life's biggest pleasures, and since you're here, we guess you think travel is too. Combine your excitement for both by heading out and trying the local food and beverage offerings at a handful of the cafés, bars and restaurants in town.
A common ingredient in the fare here is beef. One more is dairy products. Give them a go if they're not a part of your food repertoire already.
When Merty residents talk about food, you might hear salt and pepper squid or meat pie mentioned once or twice. These classic dishes are an important part of the region and should be on any foodie's must-try list.
Dinner isn't complete without dessert, so forget about counting calories and get stuck into one of the best after-dinner treats, peach melba.
Good news, beer aficionados. You'll discover some lip-smacking brews to toss back here. Chill out with a glass of Southwark Premium in a comfy bar and don't forget to text your pals back at home, 'Wish you were beer'.
Neat or on the rocks — the bar person should know the best way to enjoy a glass of Bundaberg Spiced Rum. When the night calls for something with a little more zing, it should be the first drink you order!
Start your night the right way with a drop of a local wine like Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon or Riverina Chardonnay. Taste for texture, balance and structure, or just have a bottle with your mates.
Ready to hit the skies? Pack up your bags, set the alarm clock and map a route to Leigh Creek Airport (LGH). It's roughly 290 kilometres to the southwest.
