Arkaroo rock is a beautiful rock shelter with traditional ochre and charcoal paintings in the shadow of Ikara (Wilpena Pound) surrounded by rugged mountain ranges that depict the Yura Muda (creation story) of Ikara.

On this self-drive tag-along tour you will enjoy spectacular scenery while learning about ancient Adnyamthana culture. This unique tour is led by a traditional owner, offering an authentic and personal insight into the heritage and traditions of the Adnyamathanha people. Your guide’s connection to the land and its stories transforms this tour into a journey of discovery and respect.

Engage in an exploration of traditional bush tucker, native plants, local fauna, and the hidden knowledge of bush medicine, gaining a deeper understanding of how the Adnyamathanha people harmoniously coexist with their environment.

The Arkaroo Rock tour is an invitation to step into a world where every rock, plant, and painting holds a story waiting to be told.
