Duration: 38 nights. Convoy of four vehicles.
Stretching over 1,800km from Halls Creek to Wiluna, the Canning Stock Route is a must-do trip for experienced four-wheel drivers, not only in Australia but around the world.
Completed in 1910, the Canning Stock Route (CSR) was commissioned by the WA Government to break the monopoly of West Kimberley cattle barons by providing an alternate way of getting beef cattle to the south. It was first surveyed by Alfred Canning, who was later tasked with the construction of the 48 wells required to make the CSR viable.
