Cazneaux Tree
A lone river red gum made famous by Harold Cazneaux's 1937 photograph, with the Wilpena Pound walls in the background.
This solitary river red gum became famous thanks to 'Spirit of the Age', a 1937 photograph by Australian photographer Harold Cazneaux, which symbolizes the resilience of the Australian outback. The tree stands beside the Wilpena to Blinman road, with a pullover spot and interpretive sign. The background faces the eastern wall of Wilpena Pound, making it a must-stop photo spot on a road trip. Admission is free, and it is about a 5-minute drive from Wilpena Resort. It can be combined with a stop at Stokes Hill Lookout.
