Mount Serle

Mount Serle is the name of both a mountain peak and a former sheep station in the Flinders Ranges of South Australia. Known by the name Arta-wararlpanha, the location is also of important cultural and spiritual significance to the Adnyamathanha people, who lived there long before European settlement in the mid-19th century. The Greenwood family were prominent pastoralists as well as mineral prospectors in the area, in particular William Bentley Greenwood and his son Gordon Arthur Greenwood. W. B. Greenwood discovered the uranium deposits at Mount Painter (now part of Arkaroola Protection Area), which were identified by geologist Douglas Mawson in 1910. The station was poor pastoral country, and has been destocked. Although not an official protected area, is home to many native animals.
