Davenport Range National Park

Hi Graham - It is a closed station road and has been for some years. It belongs to Epenarra Station so you could always phone them.

Graham,

I drove the track in 2010.

At the time my daughter was teaching at the nearby community. She was friends with the station manager and they had no problem with us taking the track. They did ask that we call in when we got to the Barkly highway. It is a considerable shortcut.
The track was in pretty good shape except for 4 or 5 sections that were covered in water. There were sidetracks though. I travelled it with a Grand Vitara and camper trailer. The track hadn't seen much traffic with only 2 other sets of tyre tracks for most of the route.

I believe that management of Epenara changed last year with the previous manager swapping stations with their parents, perhaps Murray Downs. Whether they will allow use of the track is unknown but its well worth checking.

I spent a couple of nights at Old Police Station waterhole in the Davenport ranges national park. The waterhole was pretty well full and a magnificent sight. If I'd had the time I'd have stayed longer. Make sure you check out the ruins on the opposite side of the waterhole.
