Surveyor Generals Corner

Hi Ron.

Firstly Always make sure you have enough fuel.

Secondly Don't camp along the route if possible

Thirdly Wave at all the other vehicles.

The Mulga Park Rd is a pleasant drive

Enjoy

I am also planning to visit Surveyors General Corner in mid July, and would appreciate any feed back re the correct approach for permission etc.... If there is any one who has been there recently and knows about the contacts that are required I would welcome your advice. I believe we need to follow the correct protocol even though you may get away with just driving in. However this approach will eventually bugg... it up for others and inevitably result in complete closure.

Thanks,


Mike.

Hi Ron

I do not know where you have been looking, but according to both the Department of Indigenous Affairs and Shire of Ngaanyatjarrauk web sites, access has not changes.

You must pay a fee to the guide and a $ value per person.

Access is only permitted from Western Australia, via the Irrunytju (Wingellina) Community.



Unreal country out that way.



Cheers

Hello Ron,

To visit Surveyor Generals Corner you must get a permit from the Department of Indigenous Affairs WA. They have a website.

To travel on the Great Central Road WA you need a permit as well and if you are travelling east into the NT you need a permit from the Central Land Council NT. again you get that from their website.

As you mentioned permits to travel east from Wingellina & Surveyor Generals Corner are not usually allowed.

You should advise Wingellina Community that you are going to be visiting them and when you arrive you go to the Office where you pay a fee for your vehicle and passengers. It cost us $140 (1 vehicle, 2 pass). You then get taken by the local guide out to the corner.

Hope this has helped.
