Comalco Survey Track

You'll discover genuine outback adventure on the Comalco Survey Track, a remote 13.7 km route that takes you deep into the heart of South Australia's stunning desert landscape. This trail rewards experienced 4WD drivers with access to one of Australia's most pristine and isolated regions, where vast red earth expanses meet brilliant blue skies and the silence of the outback surrounds you completely.

The terrain transitions between well-defined survey tracks and more challenging sections that demand careful navigation and vehicle control. You'll traverse red dirt roads with varying surface conditions, encountering patches of soft sand, rocky outcrops, and potentially corrugated sections that test your suspension and driving skills. The scenery is quintessentially Australian outback—expansive vistas, native vegetation, and the sense of true wilderness that keeps adventurers returning to this corner of the country.

Before attempting this trail, ensure your vehicle is in excellent mechanical condition with adequate fuel, water, and recovery equipment. The remote location means help is distant, so self-sufficiency is critical. Navigation tools and local knowledge are essential; use the Newtracs app to track your progress and share your location with others. This is a trail for serious off-road enthusiasts seeking authentic outback exploration away from crowds.
