William Creek to Mt Dare. One or two days & the must see's

Thanks, sounds good.
Cheers.

I did that section two weeks ago, it is an easy one day drive, road is very rough around Dalhousie to Mt Dare. Be sure to have a swim at Dalhousie Springs and visit the old homestead ruins, there is now great accommodation at William Creek, Trevor the new owner of the hotel (owns Wright Air) has just put in brand new Ensuited cabins etc. Also be sure to ask about a flight over Lake Ayre from William Crk as well.

Mick, thanks for the links to your interesting & very informative blogs.
Cheers,

David, Good to have a recent road report. Will definitely be having a swim at the springs & checking out the ruins. We did the flight from Marree last year on our way south from Birdsville
Cheers,

It is great to hear that the William Creek pub has a new owner. About 18 months to 2 years ago the owner was a grumpy old sod who made our visit unpleasant.

The Dalhousie ruins are interesting and well worth the detour.

Also, be aware that at Dalhousie Springs there millions of very large and hungry mosquitoes that hang around the toilets. I thought that I had lost a lot of weight whilst on the loo but it was only the mossies trying to carry me off to their nests to feed their young!

Regards ... Ajay and Fletch.

Lol, no mozzies this year just MILLIONS of bloody flies!!!

Another vote for the Painted Desert, not sure if the Station has accomodation though. when we were there a few years ago we camped but used their shower facilities.

Thanks guys. Had planned to come home from Alice via Coober Pedy. I think I may look into doing detour turning off at Cadney Park, stay a night at Arckaringa then Coober Pedy via Mount Barry.
Cheers
