Named after the ancient Aboriginals who roamed the vast Australian desert, Tingari Ranch Retreat honors the spirit of gatherings of families and friends around water and food. According to this mythology, the first peoples were created from the “Tingari dreaming” and embody a vast network of Aboriginal songlines of ancient tribal elders who traversed the mighty Australian outback. These songlines, stretching back tens of thousands of years, tell stories of powerful ancestor men and women, of resilience and survival, and of bush gatherings and rituals celebrating the life sustaining forces of human connection and the land that hosts them. We invite you to join the songlines of the ancient Tonkawa American Indians and generations of white settlers, (including a generation of Australian Americans!) to relax, play and enjoy Tingari Ranch.
