The Story of Bungaree Station

Step into South Australia’s pastoral past with The Story of Bungaree Station, a self-guided experience at one of the state’s most iconic historic properties, located just north of Clare.

Established in 1841 by the Hawker family, Bungaree Station became the headquarters of one of Australia’s most successful sheep flocks and has grown into a fascinating “village-like” heritage complex featuring a homestead, woolshed, church, station store, and more.

As part of the South Australia History Festival, this self-guided tour allows visitors to explore the property at their own pace, with interpretive signage and audio posts sharing stories of early pastoral life, pioneering families, and the development of the region.
