Copyworld Southern Flinders Rally

The 2025 Copyworld Southern Flinders Rally is a two-day event scheduled for the 16th and 17th of August 2025, based in Crystal Brook, South Australia. The Bi-Yearly event will run every two years alternating between Crystal Brook (2025 & 2029) and Gladstone. (2027 & 2031)

The 2025 event will feature approximately 185 km of competitive distance, with remote services at both Gladstone and Spalding for some categories. The event organiser has adopted a measured approach for the first year, ensuring the rally can proceed regardless of weather conditions. With plans already under way for future expansion. Consequently, the 2025 roads will be predominantly well-maintained shire roads of good quality.

Competitors will be challenged over various roads during both days and at night on Saturday evening, navigating with a roadbook. (This is not a Pace Noted Event) Participants can look forward to a mix of new stages and a few iconic stages from the past, including Beetaloo Valley, Bungaree Station, Bundaleer Reservoir, and Bundaleer Forest, among others.

The event will feature several different categories to accommodate everyone.
