Far North South Australia

Flinders Ranges and Outback

ATDW pixel
The area covered, commonly referred to as the Flinders Ranges and Outback, comprises around 80% of the state's land area.

The region supports a population of 32,000, the largest community being Port Augusta, which acts as a vital service centre for the region's widespread and diverse, small and micro-communities.

The region incorporates two of Australia's tourism icons; The Flinders Ranges and the Outback, all of South Australia's priority mineral exploration regions and the cross roads of Australia's national land transport network.

Significant opportunities for economic growth in the northern region exist in the sectors of resources, tourism, transport, defence, services, food and arts. RDA Far North is committed to fostering this growth for the benefit of the northern regional community.
