OUTBACK ODYSSEY

COOBER PEDY, SA A journey through our famously eccentric outback towns, meeting dusty characters along the way, is made possible by joining a postie on his rather unusual run from the subterranean opal mining town of Coober Pedy to William Creek along the Oodnadatta Track. You’ll hit the unsealed red roads in something that looks a little bit like a tank, as the postie makes his stops at remote cattle stations, including Anna Creek Station, the largest in the world; Israel would fit inside. You’ll cross the Dingo Fence, lunch at the legendary Pink Roadhouse in Oodnadatta and drink at the William Creek Hotel, a quintessential outback pub. mailruntour.com.au
