Information

Set amongst the Barkly tablelands this sprawling 350,000 acre working cattle station, is rich in natural and cultural values. They offer multiple types of accommodation ranging from camping, powered sites, king single cabins and even a 3 bedroom family cottage.

Spend some time to learn about the traditional use of the country. Take a walk to important cultural sites such as Kajanpurra Waterhole & Punkkurr Punkkurra spring.

Banka Banka Station was the first operational cattle lease in this region and also served as an army camp during World War II.

Amenities are clean with hot showers and big rigs are welcome. Pets are welcome on a lead as native fauna wander around. There is no need to book in as many travellers stop in their travels after spotting Banka Banka from the highway. Bookings can be made however via the website. Reception and sites open at 11am.

Limited internet at homestead for managers. Best to call rather than email the office.
