Demonstrating leadership in modern luxury, the Defender Experience Arkaba, will be hosted in a unique private wildlife sanctuary – in the Ikara-Flinders Ranges, around five hours north of Adelaide. The Arkaba homestead is surrounded by 65,000 acres of natural bushland with beautiful views.
Defender Experience guests will be invited to push the limits of their adventuring abilities with authentic Defender lifestyle activities. They will learn about the wildlife, sustainability projects, geology and geography of the Flinders Ranges from experts while travelling in the latest expedition-ready Defenders.
Towering ancient cliffs and deep craters border dusty roads, wildlife roams and the sounds of birds echo in the air. Full of rugged off-road trails perfectly suited to Defender’s unmatched capability, guests will experience and get to appreciate a taste of life on the land, as well as elevated culinary experiences.
Defender Experience Arkaba clients will enjoy three nights’ accommodation, including the historic Arkaba homestead and a Defender Rooftop Tent Experience to celebrate the tough luxury of the Defender adventure lifestyle.
