You'll experience authentic outback scenery characteristic of the region, with wide-open vistas and sparse vegetation typical of South Australia's interior.

Preparation is minimal for Second Street. Basic vehicle maintenance and a full fuel tank are sensible precautions given the remote location near Farina Station, and carrying water is always wise in the outback. With three previous drivers having successfully completed this route, you can drive with confidence knowing the track is established and manageable for standard 4WD vehicles.
