Cordillo Downs

This is the main route from Innamincka to Birdsville. The track is about 420km and conditions vary greatly. The countryside is a seemingly endless gibber plain but this is Australia's prime cattle

Travelled this road 17/7/08, take usual precautions coming to creek beds etc. Other then driving to the conditions a good road.
A vehicle and trailer/caravan with high clearance is needed.
If bush camping, if you find a good spot grab it because there is not a lot to choose from.

Always planning the next trip. VKS-737 mobile 1619

I quite like the camping out that way. If you want to be near water, Cadelga Ruins or Bull Hole Ck usually have water, but you're competing with cattle, so we prefer one of the many dry creeks - just pull off a little way and you'll get a nice flat spot with firewood.Cordillo Downs Station have signs up asking you not to camp within about 10k of the homestead.
