Which Way? NSW to Innamincka...

Most common way is to go via Camerons Corner, Bollards Lagoon, Mert merti then up the old Strezlecki Track.

Hi Maxhugen,

Don't be put off by any talk of 4wd etc. Where you are planning is all easy going, basically gravel roads unless it rains, and then the best option is to sit and wait. Yes it is remote, but the roads are well travelled unless you take one of the side tracks. If you are nervous about heading into the never never, perhaps hire a satphone or hf radio (satphone is easier to use), and don't forget to lower your tyre pressures when you get off the bitumen. Keep an eye out for wash outs, as they get expensive if you hit them at speed, and also look out for kamakazies coming over the crests in the middle of the road (or even on the incorrect side). I presume you plan on going through Noccundra and Jackson Oil Field to Innamincka. Between Warri Gate and Nocundra is a little sandy, but nothing to worry about. The Noccundra pub is definetly worth a visit. You will need an SA Deserts Parks Permit to camp near Innamincka and visit the Cooper Creek etc. They are expensive, but the information and maps are well worth it (first time anyway). Most people seem to make a loop and return via the Strezlecki Track and Bollards Lagoon. Cameron Corner is worth the visit to say you've been there.
There is a more direct route from Tibooburra to Innamincka through Tooma Gate, but I wouldn't recommend it unless you are well prepared and experienced. This is a fascinating part of the world, and you'll get to see heaps if you take your time. I hope you are allowing a little more than a long weekend for this trip - 2 weeks at least.
Keep the shiny side up.

maxhugen hi Went that way 4 weeks ago. Make sure you spend some time at Mootwingee national park, great place just north of Broken Hill. All the best ps make sure you take some small yabbies, guarantee you will catch some fish in the coopers creek.
