Information

This old airstrip is situated on the southern reaches of the Hunt Oil Road approximately 53 kilometres north-west of the Great Central Road. The Hunt Oil Road passes right across the southern end of the strip. The strip is largely overgrown with spinifex and acacia but it is still easy to discern where the runway boundaries were. It would be a risky thing to attempt a landing on these days.
