Begin this tour in a town home to one of Australia’s most isolated pubs - William Creek. With a population of less than 10 it is often claimed to be Australia’s smallest town. Departing from William Creek you will have an opportunity to explore the land that makes up the world’s largest cattle station, Anna Creek. As you travel across deep red sandy dunes keep you eyes out for historic farm relics left by the drovers of the past. Although the creeks are dry, seasonal rains often leave the desert vibrant with plants and animals.
You will be crossing the historical Oodnadatta Track following the remains of the original Ghan railway track as well as what's left of the Overland Telegraph line - both critical in the settling of Australia's interior. You'll hear the stories of the settlers, their successes and failures along with historical accounts by descendants from original inhabitants, the indigenous people. Their stories will be told - stories of survival, stories of trade and stories of the sacred Dreaming.
