Australian 4x4 Travel Outback
Tag Along
Join
Australian 4x4 Travel on a trip of a lifetime as we visit some of the
amazing outback regions including White Cliffs, Milparinka, Tibooburra,
Cameron Corner, Innamincka, Coongie Lakes, Birdsville, Big Red, Marree and Lake Eyre
This
is one of Australia's iconic 4wd regions and we go through it on a
fabulous 10 day tag along trip - We meet at White Cliffs and
end at Broken Hill
This is a self catered 4wd tag along
tour, is camper trailer friendly and the cost includes unlimited
passengers in your vehicle, a Desert Parks Pass for your vehicle and
all camp site and other access fees. Whilst it is essentially a camping
trip you will be able to upgrade to country pub or similar
accommodation for most of the trip. You could also keep cooking to a
minimum by eating in the pubs on most nights
We will travel through several desert
regions and National Parks during the trip including the Strzelecki
Desert, the eastern fringes of the Simpson Desert, Sturt Stony Desert,
Sturt National Park, Innamincka Regional Reserve, the Channel Country,
Lake Eyre National Park and parts of the Flinders Ranges
We start at 9am on day one from outside of the Underground Motel at
White Cliffs, where most of us would probably be staying anyway on the
night before we set off
Along the way we will visit or pass through Big Red Sand Dune,
Birdsville, Broken Hill, Burkes Grave, Cameron Corner, Cooper Creek,
the Dig Tree, Farina Ruins, Flinders Ranges, Innamincka, Lake Eyre,
Leigh Creek, Marree, Merty Merty, Milparinka, Mungerrannie, Tibooburra and more
Along the way, and in between others,
we will drive the original Strzelecki Track and the Outer Birdsville
Track. There may even be a chance to do some of the Inner Birdsville as
well although it has been impassable recently because of the water
still covering the area around Goyder Lagoon
At Innamincka we will have the
opportunity to visit such historically significant sites as Burke and
Wills Graves, The Dig Tree and Cooper Creek. There is also the optional
opportunity of taking a helicopter ride around the area and viewing the
landmarks from the air
Whilst in Birdsville we will travel
through the Channel Country and into the eastern fringes of the Simpson
Desert where you will have the opportunity to attempt Big Red, the
iconic and biggest, sand dune at the eastern end of the Simpson Desert. There is also an easy way up the dune for the not so adventurous
Big Red's official name is Nappanerica
Dune, doesn't sound as enticing as Big Red does it?
Whilst at Birdsville you can also optionally fly over the Channel
Country
When
in Marree we will take a drive up
the Oodnadatta Track and a trip to Lake Eyre and the next day there is
an optional 70 km trip through a private property near Marree that has
a wide variety of Outback terrain types, old ruins, the old Ghan
railway and much more all on the one property including a drive along a
river bed and through a gorge with its amazing rock scapes towering
either side
With
half a days travel from Marree, a chance to view the amazing Farina
Ruins and views of the Ochre Cliffs we will have a one night stop over
at Hawker where you will have the chance to take yourself off to view a
little of the Flinders Ranges.
Our final destination on day 10 will be Broken Hill where we will arrive during the afternoon.
The trip is
self catered but the cost does include a Desert Parks Pass for your
vehicle which is needed for Innamincka, the Simpson Desert and Lake Eyre and all other access and camping fees where applicable
Whilst this is essentially a camping trip, and we would prefer that trip participants did camp, at all of
the planned stops you will be able to optionally upgrade to country pub
or motel type accomodation

a true 4wd Tag Along Tour to this outback region then you are unlikely
