Ruins of the former Illamurta Springs Police
Camp within the Illamurta Springs Conservation Area. Visitors can see the station
ruins, an old yard, stock yards, old gaol and the spring.
No pets, no camping. This is a
point of interest day use area only and is very remote. 4WD accessible only.
This police
camp was established between 1893 and 1912 after the closure of the
Boggy Hole Police Station in the
Finke Gorge National Park. The Police Station functioned for a time as an administrative centre and as a distribution point of rations to Aboriginal people.
