The Ochre Pits near Farina Station in South Australia are natural deposits of ochre, historically significant to the Aboriginal people. These pits have been mined for thousands of years, providing ochre used in rock art, body decoration, and medicinal purposes. The ochre ranges in color from white to yellow, orange, and red, and was highly prized and traded along routes into the Gulf Country of Queensland and elsewhere. Visitors can explore the area to appreciate its cultural significance and natural beauty.
