Activities and Services

Art Groups & Photography
Willow Springs Station is an ideal base for artists and photographers to capture the outstanding beauty of the spectacular Flinders Ranges.

Capture the contrasting moods of morning and evening light, the brown colours of the dry times or the greens following welcome rains. The clear air, the colours and predominantly fine weather brings artists and photographers back time and time again.
Bush Walking
Enjoy the marked trails, hill climbing, exploring natural springs or viewing the aboriginal rock etchings. These are some of the features of this property where you may choose to relax in one of the magnificent stony creek beds in the shade of towering red gums, listening to the symphony of bird song.

Stokes Hill Lookout - a "Must Do"
From the Willow Springs Homestead a 10 minute drive to Stokes Hill Lookout (easily accessible by all vehicles) gives you a 360° view of the surrounding Flinders Ranges.

A spectacular place to see sunrise, sunset, the night sky or the ever changing colours of our landscape. We suggest you take a bottle of wine and nibbles and enjoy this experience. 
Spirituality
Willow Springs is a place of spiritual significance, so a growing number of our visitors believe. One regular visitor has used stones to lay down a Labyrinth and a Medicine Wheel. Labyrinths are simple maze-type structures which people use to help them meditate. For further details and photographs go to the Spirituality page.
