Arkaroola WildernessSanctuary

A 610-square-kilometre private wilderness sanctuary in the northern Flinders Ranges, six hundred kilometres north of Adelaide, run by the Sprigg family since 1968. Take a lodge room, a cottage, a campsite, or a Ridgetop Sleepout deck where you bed down in the open under one of the darkest skies in the country — Arkaroola is a certified International Dark Sky Sanctuary. There's the Native Pine licensed restaurant and the Pick and Shovel Bar, a year-round pool, and fuel and a workshop for the long road in. Endangered yellow-footed rock-wallabies live on the granite around you.
