Pastoral Unincorporated Area

South Australia’s Pastoral Unincorporated Area stretches from the Northern Territory border to the state’s eastern boundary, encompassing immense arid rangelands, salt lakes and sparsely settled desert country. Kati Thanda–Lake Eyre, Australia’s largest salt lake, is a defining feature of this vast interior. During rare floods in the Lake Eyre Basin, water carried by Cooper Creek can transform its usually dry salt pan. The Simpson Desert extends across the northeast, bringing long parallel dunes to the outback horizon. Marree recalls the region’s transport heritage as the meeting point of the Oodnadatta and Birdsville Tracks.
