Bungaree Station Tours
Clare Valley
Explore SA's pioneering past or learn about farming at historic Bungaree Station through a range of tours.
Established by George Hawker and his brothers in 1841, Bungaree became the headquarters of an extensive sheep station with 100 thousand merino sheep by the 1880s. It resembled a small village, with its own Church, Station Store, Blacksmith Shop and even the District Council Chambers , as well as its beautiful sandstone Homestead, Woolshed, Shearers Quarters, Stableyard, Managers House and other staff cottages.
Now, 180 years later, it is an efficient mixed farm run by the descendants of the original founder, G.C. Hawker. Consequently Bungaree Station is not a museum, but rather a living record of rural Australia since 1841.
Today visitors can explore the property’s rich history or the modern farming enterprise through several tour options.
