Allandale Station is a locality in the Australian state of South Australia located about 848 kilometres (527 mi) north of the state capital of Adelaide and about 20 kilometres (12 mi) south-east of the town of Oodnadatta.
[9] Mount Toondina crater, an impact structure, is located in the locality's south-east.
[11] The 2016 Australian census which was conducted in August 2016 reports that Allandale Station and other adjoining localities in the north of South Australia shared a population of 204 people of which at least 80 are estimated by the Outback Communities Authority to be living in the locality of Oodnadatta.
[1] Its site was surveyed in September 1890 in anticipation of the outcome of the discovery of gold in the adjoining area but was not proclaimed until 21 July 1898.
The name which was originally used for the now-closed railway station located near the site of the town was derived from the Aboriginal name of a nearby water hole recorded by A. T. Woods in 1872.
