Jamestown

The landscape around Jamestown is a dry, rolling grain-and-grazing district on the southern fringe of the Flinders Ranges, which has shaped both the town’s layout and its rural economy. In South Australia’s Mid North, Jamestown serves surrounding farms where cereal crops and livestock remain central to local life. Nearby Bundaleer Forest began as a plantation in 1876 and is recognised as Australia’s first forest plantation, creating an unexpected belt of pines beside open farmland. The district is also linked to bush outfitter R. M. Williams, who was born at Belalie North near Jamestown. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of South Australia’s Mid North.
