Nilpena Station is a pastoral lease that operates as a cattle station (formerly a sheep station) in the northern Flinders Ranges in South Australia.

Ediacaran fossils were discovered on the station in 1985, and in 2016, two-thirds of the property was sold to the Government of South Australia, to become part of the Nilpena Ediacara National Park when proclaimed in 2021. As of May 2023 the owners of the station are the Fargher family.
