Great Australian Walks

Great Desert Walks 2025

Be ready for a true wilderness adventure - walking and living in the vast Simpson Desert on a journey like no other. If the phrase "off the beaten track" could ever be truly applied, this is it, as our treks begin where the tracks end. There are no roads, no paths - just the wide-open expanse of the desert. Each trek is an exploration of untamed landscapes, crossing rolling red dunes, following inland river and creek systems, or traversing the shimmering gibber flats and expansive claypans.

Since 1976, the Outback Camel Company has been walking the deserts of Australia, and we believe there’s no better way to explore these remote landscapes than with pack camels. Their gentle, steady presence enables us to tread lightly, leaving only the faintest trace of our passage across the land.

Our camel team offers a way to experience the desert that’s both timeless and transformative. Walking with these charismatic creatures connects you deeply to the rhythm of the landscape, offering a continuous, unbroken journey of discovery. This is what we call Desert Bushwalking - a chance to embrace the raw beauty of the Simpson Desert and reconnect with the spirit of this ancient land.
