A truly ancient South Australian landscape moulded by hundreds of millions of years of geological activity, the Flinders Ranges boasts some of the country’s most spectacular outback scenery. At 25,000 hectares, Arkaba is a medium sized sheep station and is home to an extraordinary variety of birds and wildlife.
Dating from the 1850s Arkaba Homestead offers guests a taste of classic Australian country hospitality while a few ‘Wild Bush Luxury’ touches ensure comfort and style. There are just five guest rooms, each with an en suite bathroom, comfortable living areas and a pool overlooking Arkaba Creek.
For taking in the sheer size and scale of Australia’s outback, bushwalking, photography, Aboriginal rock art or just soaking up the sights and sounds of the bush, the Flinders is in a class of its own. Learn about the workings of a sheep station, tackle the foothills of the Elder Range on a mountain bike, take a scenic flight over the salt pans or spend a day with an indigenous guide learning of the region’s rich Aboriginal culture. On guided 4x4 drives, visit historic towns, enjoy an outback pub lunch and search for wildlife; Red and Grey Kangaroo, Euro, the rare Yellowfooted Rock Wallaby and more.
