Lake Eyre and Surrounds

Hughesy,

The best place to see Lake Eyre is at 1000ft. I flew over Lake Eyre 4 years ago and it had water in it then. William Creek has flights over the area going all the time.

Yep - all you will see from the shore is the dry shore.....the lake is so huge it has tides when full....... have a look at the bottom of LE south, where the Oodnadatta track runs past it......you won't find a better shore view anywhere else........ Mulloorina track of Halligan Bay ..... still the same flat salty view. It has to be full to get any visitor value at the edges......flights are the only way, and you even have to book if if visitor numbers are healthy during holidatys etc.

Check out this webb site before you do anything.
Lake Eyre is filling but can only be seen from the air.

I'm looking at getting a look at Lake Eyre as well . Planning 3 or 4 weeks at Wilpena Pound, arriving on or about March 25.

Gaday Hughesy. The Warburton river should be flowing at Kalamurina Station which
allows camping for a small fee. Some great remote camping spots in there and the closest you'll get to seeing water from the ground. Craig................
