Staying in a homestead on the Arkaba Conservancy in the Flinders Ranges, you will be captivated by its tranquillity, remoteness and its rich conversation story.
It is the great outback that, for me, sums up the awesome beauty of Australia – big sky country with hundreds of miles of wild and arid land, dotted with mobs of kangaroos, emus, echidnas and many other species.
Tourism began in this part of Australia in Uluru, famously known as Ayers Rock, which is at the heart of the outback geographically and spiritually. Some 900 miles south-east are the Flinders Ranges, which punctuate this huge expanse and are another of Australia’s ancient and most ecologically significant landscapes.
