New Trek
Note - SA Deserts ThisHay
River Trek is suitable only to 4WDrivers with a strong sense of
adventure and experience in remote desert travel. This track is largely
unmarked and good map-reading skills are essential. 
Up until a few years
ago, this part of the Northern Simpson was not open to the general
public. However, now with a permit, you will be welcomed and
guided through the area by the traditional landowner. This
trek note is in the new format
including reverse driving directions.
