City To Summit takes place on Friday 25 September.

What to expect
Participants walk as a group led by an Operation Flinders Team Leader, who usually works in the northern Flinders Ranges with program participants. Along the route there are designated stops with Operation Flinders activities and opportunities to hear from young people involved in the program. After arriving at Woodhouse Activity Centre, attendees share a warm dinner and hear further presentations from young people.
