We talk about a timeless grandeur of the Arkaroola landscape.
Bararranna Gorge Waterhole, One of the iconic vistas of the Arkaroola Landscape
Arkaroola is synonymous with ancient geological ages. It is the most rugged expression of the Australian Landscape. At once powerful, untamed but with a natural beauty.This scene projects a primeval emotion typical of the harsh and robust environment. The rock faces are sharp and steep with few trees successfully finding a crevasse to set their roots. Interest in the scene is enhanced with the foreground water, and we have the curiosity of what lies around the next bend as we make our way up to the Bararranna Waterhole. There are still many questions that the landscape asks of us. Look at the sharpness of the rock face embracing the cutting power of flood.
Contemplate just how high and powerful the flood must be when it does rain.

Sale!We talk about a timeless grandeur of the Arkaroola landscape. This scene taken from the lookout near the Pinnacles, a peaceful, contemplative hilltop vantage point looking over a typical Arkaroola landscape. The track winding back to the village gives the sense of journey with some interest in the distant rocky outcrops that remain from the weathered, folded landscape. I liked the sense of the hills and the colour of the dried earth coming through the sparse vegetation.

Mt Ward from Split Rock
(Ridge Top Tour Track).
One of the iconic vistas of the Arkaroola Landscape. I am really attracted to this place. It is not just the power of the landscape, but the colour of the hills on the horizon and on the face of Split Rock. I enjoy the challenge of bringing all that I see to canvas.
Arkaroola is synonymous with the ancient geological ages. It is the most rugged expression of the Australian Landscape. At once powerful and untamed with a natural beauty.
Arkaroola offers the famous Ridgetop Tour which takes you to Sillers Lookout. One of the most exhilarating experiences in a most exhilarating landscape.
