Folks - I'm interested in visiting Kalamurina station on the Warburton Creek (just off the Birdsville Track -SA) for a couple of days as we cruise that region - they offer camping and driving on the station for tourists - we are bush campers and like walking, fishing and a good sit round the fire at night etc - any feedback will be appreciated re experiences there. Thanks.

Camped there week before easter this year as flood water subsided, if you like it remote and sparton dry and dusty then you will like it.
Supposed to be the loneliest caravan park in the world, but its just bush camping on warburton creek miles from anything including the homestead. Enjoy.

Banjo. The Warburton river is not unlike the Cooper creek at Innamincka with large permanent water holes to camp by. Out of the river you are in a cattle station on the edge of the Simpson Desert so it's dry & remote. We found some nice red cliffs, a hot artiesien bore, plenty of bird life & a couple of sandy beaches but that's about it. (Nice spot away from the crowds) With permission there is over 80 KM of tracks that follow the river towards lake Ayre.

Banjo,

Was down at Mungeranie about a month ago, and while we didn't go into Kalamurina, did go into the Warburton at one spot. It was still running then, about axle deep, crystal clear, a bit different to where we live further upstream.

Trip along Birdsville Track was uneventful, but there were some magic amounts of wildflowers about. Had to put a photo stop limit on one passenger, of one stop/100kms, otherwise we wouldn't have got to Mungeranie before dark. Not too sure how the w'flowers would be going a month later?

Magic bit of country down that way, really rapt in the hill formations around Mungeranie Gap.

Enjoy,

Hooroo...
