Wudinna is 570km north-west of Adelaide, Wudinna is an important service centre for the central Eyre Peninsula. Dominating the skyline 10 km north-east of the town, Mt Wudinna, which, at 261m in height, is the second largest granite outcrop in Australia. Only Bald Rock, just out of Tenterfield in the northern NSW granite belt, is larger. There is a BBQ and shelter-equipped recreation area at the base of the huge rock where you can recover after a hike to the summit to take in the breath-taking views.

The half-hour drive from Wudinna to the mountain features of some of the smaller, bare granite hills in the region and low-stone walls which were built by pioneer settlers at the base of the rocks to store and divert run-off water.

The Eyre Highway passes the edge of this small town. Across the plain, a group of granite rocks suddenly rears out of the earth. The largest, Mt Wudinna Rock, is claimed to be among the oldest in Australia. In its shadow are Little Wudinna Rock and two more of the ancient outcrops.
