Overview
Wirrabara sits 235 km north of Adelaide in the Southern Flinders Ranges, straddling the Rocky River and the Horrocks Highway (Main North Road). The 2016 census recorded 403 residents in the locality, with 230 living in the town centre, offering a blend of modest town‑site homes and surrounding rural dwellings. A long‑standing timber industry and a farming community give the area a working‑landscape feel, while a monthly producers’ market on the third Sunday adds a social hub for locals and visitors.
Transport links include the historic Main North Road and the Wilmington railway line, which was extended through Wirrabara in the 1910s after local advocacy. Heritage attractions such as the Copper Mine Chimney on Main North Road and nearby silo art by Sam Bates enrich the cultural vibe. Together, these amenities support a relaxed, community‑focused lifestyle amid South Australia’s Mid North scenery.
