The man was rock climbing with a group of friends before he fell to his death on Thursday, shortly after 3.30pm.
Police, paramedics and State Emergency Service crews raced to the popular climbing area at Upalinna, about 40 kilometres north of Hawker, but they could not revive the man.
"The man was with rock-climbing companions at a well-known location on the south-eastern corner of Wilpena Pound, when he fell about 50 metres onto a ledge," a South Australian police spokesman said.
His body will be retrieved at first light on Friday and police will prepare a report for the Coroner.
