We enter the desert and cross the Dog Fence – the longest fence in the world. The 5,300km Dog Fence separates what were the sheep-growing areas in the south from the dingoes of central Australia. We travel the Oodnadatta Track via William Creek with its Woomera rockets museum park, A Painted Desert flight option is available from here if pre-arranged. Follow the Old Ghan Railway track via various picturesque rail bridges and sidings from the Ghan hey days.
