Yourambulla Caves

A small Aboriginal rock art site south of Hawker, where a short climb reveals designs drawn in ochre and charcoal.

Yourambulla Caves lie about 12 km south of Hawker. The site consists of three rock overhangs holding symbols painted in ochre and charcoal by the Adnyamathanha people, along with emu tracks and handprints. The trail from the car park takes about 1 to 1.5 hours round trip and includes a section of stairs up the rock slope. The rock art is protected by railings, so please do not touch it. Admission is free, and it is a good stop along the route from Adelaide to Wilpena.
