Rawnsley Park Station, South Australia
Rawnsley Park Station is a classic Australian outback sheep station located on the edges of the infamous Wilpena Pound in the centre of the Flinders Ranges National Park, about a 3 hour drive north of Adelaide. The One and Two Bedroom Luxury Eco Villas are ideal for independent travellers, self-driving to the flinders as they have every creature comfort you could wish for as a base including stunning 360 views of the ranges. The ranges are easy to get around but once you get there you can always join one of their local rangers for a private guided walking tour, 4WD out to the gorges or take a scenic flight over some of the most unusual rugged scenery you can imagine.
Read on to learn more about a stay at Rawnsley Park Station's luxury eco villas in South Australia.
Rawnsley Park Station
The individual Eco Villas are fully equipped with their own kitchen, spacious living area and over-bed skylights which are perfect for stargazing. Sit with a glass of South Australia wine on your wrap around veranda whist watching the vibrant red colours change as the sun sets over the surrounding landscape. Cook up a treat on the barbie (Rawnsey park will provide BBQ packs for guests who prefer to self-cater) or head toThe Woolshed, a classic Aussie pub style restaurant serving delicious fresh local food in air-conditioned comfort.
A visit to the Flinders Ranges is a taste of classic Australian outback but with a difference, it doesn’t have the crowds of the red centre and there is such a variety in the terrain you can easily spend 3 or 4 days exploring. Our top five Flinders highlights include:
Wilpena Pound - The best way to truly experience this incredible natural amphitheatre is by scenic flight or take on of the walking trails that criss-cross the Pound.
- Wildlife Spotting - In the Flinders Ranges you’ll see brilliantly coloured parrots, yellow-footed rock wallabies, kangaroos and emus, while Australia’s largest bird of prey, the wedge-tailed eagle, soars above.
- Scenic flight over Lake Eyre - Lake Eyre, a vast saltpan in the middle of outback South Australia, rarely fills with water. When it does, dazzling carpets of colour transform the surrounding desert, as dozens of vein-like creeks bring life to the parched earth attracting wildlife and birdlife.
- Food & Wine - Explore the Southern Flinders Producers Trail to find surprising fresh and native produce. Try some Quandong (native peach) pies, Golden North Icecream, Blue Gum Honey and World Class Wines.
- Stargazing – The Flinders Ranges offer some of the best astronomical viewing conditions in the Southern Hemisphere because of the clear dry atmosphere. Allow at least 2 – 3 nights in the region to ensure you have time to see them at their best!
