Arkaroo Rock

Around 40km north of Hawker towards Wilpena, Arkaroo Rock is a sacred Aboriginal site (we don't need to lecture you about being respectful). The rock art here features reptile and human figures in charcoal, bird-lime, and yellow and red ochre. It's a short(ish) return walk from the car park (2km, one hour).
