Angorichina Station

Stretching north from Port Augusta into the sun-seared wilderness of South Australia's deserts, the Flinders Ranges is one of the country's most impressive outback locations. Here, surrounded by the arid wasteland of the great salt lakes, an ancient seabed has been sculpted by millions of years of rain and sun into a fractured, furrowed landscape of deep valleys covered with casuarinas and cypress pines which fall into creeks lined with river red gums. For wildlife watching, bush-walking, photography, Aboriginal rock art or just soaking up the sights and sounds of outback Australia, the Flinders is in a class of its own.
In the middle of these desiccated red ranges, Angorichina Station, covering 554 square kilometres, comes as a startling contrast - an oasis of roses and lavender hedges, green lawns and shade and an entrée to a remarkable world. For guests, one of the real pleasures of staying at Angorichina is the chance to become absorbed into the life of a working outback sheep station that has been in the Fargher Family for four generations.
