Skytrek Willow Springs Station

The Property
Willow Springs Station, which neighbours Upalinna Station, was one of the early pastoral leases in the Flinders Ranges and was purchased by the Reynolds family in 1952. Willow Springs which was formerly known as Appealinna was taken up by Joseph Wills in 1856. Willow Springs remains a pastoral lease of 70,000 acres or 28,300 hectares. Today, Willow Springs Station is a typical working sheep station offering visitors true bush hospitality and quiet secluded settings. The picturesque setting neighbours the Ikara Flinders Ranges National Park and is central to all popular features and destinations in the region with a choice of great outback activities.
Owned and operated by the Reynolds family for 4 generations, join us as we open our home to guests through self-guided 4WD tours, marked walking trails, hill climbing, exploring natural springs or viewing the Aboriginal rock etchings. Willow Springs is a sanctuary for those who want to connect, relax and really experience the local life and the atmosphere and ever-changing contrast of outback colours.
Relax in one of the magnificent wide stony creek beds in the shade of a towering red gum with a symphony of bird song or stare at the millions of stars as they light up the night sky.
