Whitwarta, South Australia Whitwarta is a town in South Australia. The town is situated beside the Wakefield River (known as "Undalya" to the Indigenous people) about 100 km north of the state capital, Adelaide. The name "Whitwarta" means freshwater (distorted from Whitarter), a reference to the freshwater springs that exist along the pronounced bend in the river nearby. The constant availability of freshwater along an otherwise dry river (the Rocks upstream of Balaklava is the next closest and permanent waterhole) meant that Whitwarta was a suitable place to establish a village. Approximately 20 people now live in the village.
