King ranch in south Texas, largest in Texas and the USA, but not in the world - as is often claimed In fact the largest ranch - or cattle station as it is locally called is in Australia. Anna Creek Station, well known as the biggest Australian cattle station: this station in the Outback of South Australia covers 6,000,000 acres, or 34,000 km2. (Belgium by comparison is just over 30,000 km2, and the biggest American ranch is about 6,000 km2.) Makes the King ranch look a little small really.
