Harry Redford Cattle Drive (Other)

An adventure of a lifetime!

Welcome to the 2012 Harry Redford Cattle Drive, the ultimate, authentic, true blue, fair dinkum Aussie outback experience. Over 19 unforgettable, spectacular days, some of Australia´s most experienced drovers will drive approximately 600 head of cattle by horseback through the twists of the rugged Redford trail, reliving one of the world´s greatest cattle duffing drives known to man

This 3 week trek takes in some of the most impressive scenery in the Aramac Shire. Expect to see spectacular desert country, amazing claypans and the brilliant Mitchell grass plains as your journey takes in 200 kilometres from Lake Dunn (near Aramac) to Muttaburra.

With wide-open rolling plains, natural lakes, historical Aboriginal sites and a sky that stretches from one horizon to the other - spectacular by day and glowing with stars by night. A land with some of the oldest geology on the planet; it´s a vast, uncompromising land that turns everyday battlers into heroes and legends. To visit here is to experience the vastness of Queensland Outback.

Each day the support crew sets up camp, and offers hearty camp oven cooking for you to enjoy. Camping is under the stars and an authentic droving experience provided in regards to toilets and showers.  All meals are provided.
