Sacred Canyon

Flinders Ranges · SA

A narrow gorge in the Flinders Ranges containing significant Aboriginal rock engravings created by the Adnyamathanha people over thousands of years. The short walk along the dry creek bed leads to walls covered in petroglyphs depicting animals, tracks, and ceremonial symbols. The canyon itself is a beautiful example of the ancient geology of the ranges. Please treat this as a culturally significant site and stay on the marked path.

Know before you go

This is a culturally significant site. Do not touch the rock engravings. Stay on the marked path. Carry water and sun protection as there is no shade.
