Ucharonidge Station operates as a pastoral lease dedicated to cattle station activities within the Northern Territory of Australia.
Situated roughly east of Elliott and north of Tennant Creek on the Barkly Tableland, it is managed in conjunction with Newcastle Waters and Dungowan Stations. The property shares boundaries with Beetaloo Station to the north, Mungabroom to the east, Helen Springs Station to the south, and Tandyidgee to the west.
Spanning an area of , Ucharonidge sustains a herd of approximately 20,000 cattle.
The lease was obtained by Paul and Florence Beebe through a 1948 land ballot, with the station being established in 1949 initially covering . In 1951, severe drought coupled with bushfires destroyed over and resulted in the loss of more than 2,000 head of cattle, compelling the Beebes to temporarily abandon the property until rainfall returned.
During the 1960s, the Beebes were among the first to introduce Brahman cattle to the Barkly Tableland. Midway through that decade, ownership transferred to William James (Mick) Beebe and his brother Roy; Mick spearheaded herd enhancements until his passing in 2004.
In 2008, Ucharonidge was acquired by the Consolidated Pastoral Company from the Beebe family for around 28 million, representing a major investment in northern Australia's cattle industry.
