Wadna | Learn about Aboriginal Culture

Welcome to Wadna!

Authentic Aboriginal artefacts & guided tours in the picturesque Adnyamathanha region of the ancient Flinders Ranges, South Australia.

Five hundred kilometres northwest of Adelaide in the Adnyamathanha region of the Flinders Ranges lies a hidden gem we christened Wadna (our word for boomerang).

We extend to you an invitation to experience the breath-taking surroundings and everlasting cultures of this stunning region.

Kristian & Gaby Coulthard, your hosts.

So proud of my Dad DR Clifford Coulthard he's just been awarded NADOC male elder of the year 2023. Well done old Man. For everyone that doesn't really know Dad's story. He left school at the age of 14 worked on sheep stations, went Droving cattle, was a worker on road gang, worked for the railways, then went to work for the relics team at the museum of south Australia preserveing and recording cultural sites in our yeta he also worked for the SA education department helping to set up an aboriginal studies in SA school. Also traveled the world helping other countries with the conservation of rock art regarded as one of our experts in Aboriginal Rock Art. More recently he was awarded a honorary doctorate from Flinders University for his work on a very important archeological site in the Northern Flinders Ranges. There's heaps of information I haven't added. But I recon you get the drift. We are super excited to see him receive this award. It just goes to show it doesn't matter where you come from we can all achieve great things. Well done Dad proud of you thank for teaching us all about Adnyamathanha culture and country. #NADOC2023#MaleElderOfTheYear#Fordy#Watibulga
RIP
