Oodnadatta

Oodnadatta is a small town in the South Australian Outback.

Get in
Oodnadatta is situated around 200 km from the Stuart Highway along the Oodnadatta Track both via Coober Pedy and Marla. The track is unpaved, but the road to Oodnadatta is usually traversable by 2WD vehicle if you're coming from the western end although that isn't the case if you're coming via Marree.

Get around
The town is small enough to walk around. Parking is no problem either.

The Oodnadatta Track is an unsealed track between Marree and Marla via Oodnadatta in South Australia. It passes the southern lake of the Kati Thanda-Lake Eyre National Park. Take note that most of the lakes around are mere dry saltbeds. The maintained roads rarely go close enough for a good view, and the roads that do approach the lakes have a risk of getting bogged.

Eat
The town provides a selection of both pub food and roadhouse food. You choose.

Drink
The nightlife in Oodnadatta won't keep you dancing all night, but you will have no problems getting a beer.

Sleep
A selection of camping, caravan parks and basic motel accommodation exists.

Go next
Down the track a couple of hundred kilometres to William Creek and Lake Eyre, or up the track to the Stuart Highway at Marla and on to Alice Springs.
