Walker Crossing Trak info please

From a very recent post. 5 to 6 hours from Inna to B Vill

Did the Birdsville to Innaminka trip via Walkers Crossing last September pulling a dirt road 16ft Coromal Seka 505 Pop-top caravan. The road at the Birdswille end is very stoney and quite rough but not dificfult. Because of the lateness in the season there was only a small amount of water in the crossing. Had no problems at all.

Have just returned from a trip in May to the Simpson desert, via Hugh River stock route, chambers pillar, finke, birdsville. We came home via walkers crossing, actual camped at walkers crossing, that is where the coopers creek cross's walker crossing.

Moomba to Walkers crossing is quite good but make sure you follow the signs, it is easy to get lost with all the oil well tracks, if you camp at walkers crossing or near there watch out of the small prickles on the ground.
From Walkers crossing towards the Birdsville track is also quite good, watch out for some bull dust holes, the last 10 to 20 k's are on gibber rock.

In all a great changing scenary track, I would recomend it, although if it has been wet, dont go near it, a lot of the track is dusty dirt.

Warren,

Ruth "made me go that way" from Birdsville to Innamincka last September. When we went through (28th I think) the crossing was bone dry, but a little bit of standing water on the track here and there.

I would have to say the change of topology along the Walkers Crossing track was fantastic and is an easy days drive if dry.

Have to agree, it could be easy to get waylayed if you don't follow the signs.
I went "East to West" and had no trouble.

Bill.
