Madigan Line (Northern Simpson Desert) Tag along Tour

Quorn, South Australia

A unique opportunity to follow in the footsteps of Dr. Cecil Madigan as you follow his 1939 camel trek across the Northern Simpson Desert. The Simpson Desert is the largest parallel sand dune system in the world with over 800 sand dunes to cross. Youll 4WD across a track that links his camps together in one of the remotest places in Australia. The 14-day Tag along Tour starts in Coober Pedy and makes its way to 'Camp 25' in Birdsville, celebrating with a tour dinner at the iconic Birdsville Hotel! You'll be amongst the very few who have done this track and you'll take your time, spending 8 days on the Madigan Line itself. You'll train as you go and when it's done properly using the correct (low) tyre pressures, gear selection and track maintenance where necessary, they've proven over the years that taking trailers is not an issue. From Birdsville we head down the iconic Birdsville Track to Marree and on through the northern Flinders Ranges and back to Quorn in the central Flinders Ranges.
