Cattle are a walk away from the yards, beer is in the cool room, food has been ordered and the greenery at the grounds has been mowed!
We will keep you updated as soon as we know more.🤞

This means the Oodnadatta Track is now open in its entirety from Marree through to Marla. If you’ve been waiting to make the full run, the gates are open.

What about Mt Dare Hotel?
We know a lot of you are looking to head north, especially for the Finke Desert Race 2026. Currently, the road to Mt Dare and Witjira National Park remain closed due to flood damage. We’ll keep you updated on any potential opening timelines for these roads as soon as we hear anything.
