Holowiliena Station Tours
Things To Do Cradock, Flinders Ranges, South Australia
Cultural and Theme Tours
Holowiliena is a Flinders Ranges sheep station owned by the same family since 1852 – that’s before Burke met Wills! The family now offers fully guided tours of the historic buildings, specially tailored to the needs of your group.
Guests will hear about local and station history over a cup of tea on the homestead veranda, before enjoying a walking tour of the historic buildings. Their guides live and work on the station, happily sharing their stories and those of the generations before. Lucky guests may even find The Outback Blacksmith at work in the forge.
They now also offer homestead-style catering, accommodation for tour guests and home produce for sale from the cellar.
