    Exhilarating Drive on the Oodnadatta Track, South Australia

     

    The Oodnadatta Track is an acclaimed 620 kilometers of frontier that takes its travellers on an inspiring journey of exploration, thrill and discovery. Bring your favourite person and travel through this outrageous track, in the red hot heart of South Australia and meet some friendly group of Aussie characters and admire the bare beauty of the red-earth desert. Following this track will enable you to get away from the tourist mobs while passing through various stunning and bizarre attractions– drive through the inland seabed, following the trade routes of ancient aboriginals and past the remains of the Old Ghan Railway.  Gaze at Maree’s unexpected sculpture park, mingle with the locals at the unusual outpost of William Creek, marvel at the iconic Algebuckina rail bridge, the longest in South Australia and finally, stop at the famous Pink Roadhouse in Oodnadatta and enjoy a quick bite of the Oodnaburger. There’s also a pub and a museum if you're looking to lay back a bit and take it easy for the night. The spot looks somewhere straight out of a wild west movie with only a small population along with limited resources. The final stretch takes you to Marla where the track is relatively better, letting you travel a bit faster. 4WDs are recommended for this journey and it is recommended to avoid the mid-summer season when temperature soars up to 50 degree Celsius!
