We are travelling into the NT in late August.I am wanting to travel the length of the
boggy hole track and continue on to Kings Canyon.All
information I have read say this is possible (if not wet). Some verbal reports say this track has been closed south of the
camp site for a while now. Anyone with have any up to date info would be great thanks

Glen, I'm in the same situation as you except I intend to travel north, from ernest giles rd. to
palm valley and find it very hard to get info. I've tried the National parks for a phone number, but I must be looking in the wrong place. I know this note does'nt help you any but at least your not alone. I'll be watching your space anyhow for some replies. We might meet you there, have a good time anyhow, Edwin

Edwin, thanks for your reply.We will be heading through that area about the 26th of August.Coming from the
Gold Coast.All information I have including April Aust 4x4 says the track travels the length of the finke. I know a
young guy who works at
the rock and he tried to travel through but the store at
Hermannsburg told him it had been washed away for a while. After much more searching and reading I have a phone number for the
ranger at Finke
Gorge Nat Park.08 89567401.
I have not tried this number but I hope it may be of some help. I E-mailed N.T. Tourism site and they were more than happy to post many brochures on 4x4ing in N.T. Let me know if i can help with anything else.

Glen. Thank you for the phone # of the Rangers office at Finke
Gorge, I got in touch with them and they explained that you can travel to
Boggy Hole either way but you can't get passed
Boggy Hole. Obviously the rain has been generous again this year. The only problem I have now is that it is a long drive when you have to back track. Thanks again for the info, have fun on your trip and keep safe. Edwin
