Flinders Range

FLINDERS RANGES

Sacred earth and shifting light—Australia’s Outback at its most dramatic.

Overview
The Flinders Ranges are a place of geological wonder and spiritual resonance. Towering ranges, Aboriginal rock art, and changing light define this ancient landscape in South Australia’s semi-arid north. Wilpena Pound—a natural amphitheatre ringed by mountains—sits at the heart of it all, offering breathtaking vistas and trails. Here, history stretches back over 600 million years, and the stillness invites deep reflection and awe.

See and Do

The local favourite
Hike into Wilpena Pound at sunrise or sunset for views that shift with the light. Take a scenic flight to see the scale of this natural formation from above.

A scene of pure natural beauty
Explore Arkaroo Rock to view ancient Adnyamathanha rock art, or watch the colours of the ranges change during golden hour.

Adventures in nature
4WD through Bunyeroo and Brachina Gorges to spot yellow-footed rock wallabies, camp under some of the darkest skies in Australia, or join a cultural tour to learn the stories and significance of the land from Traditional Owners.
