Tour Overview
This 245 km stretch between Tjukayirla Roadhouse and Warburton offers a journey through the heart of the Great Victoria Desert, showcasing rolling plains and striking desert vegetation.
Great Victoria Desert Landscape
The terrain is typical of this vast bio-region, with spinifex-covered plains, mulga woodlands, and scattered spindly grevilleas. Occasionally, a feature tree will break the horizon, adding interest to the endless landscape.
Watch for Aircraft
Just east of Tjukayirla Roadhouse, keep an eye out—this part of the Outback Way doubles as a registered airstrip. The Royal Flying Doctor Service may use this section of the road during medical emergencies, so watch for low-flying aircraft.
And enjoy the brief but welcome stretch of bitumen under your wheels!
