ILKURLKA

Welcome to Ilkurlka!

Urgent travel update 18 April 2024

There was very high rainfall between Ilkurlka and Laverton in the first half of March.

The latest advice is that the Anne Beadell and Connie Sue Highways west of Ilkurlka will remain closed for another four to six weeks. It is quite possible that reopening will not occur before mid May (or even later).

We do not know if the track through Serpentine Lakes on the Anne Beadell Highway on the SA/WA border is passable.

Initial reports are of washouts up to a meter deep and there is still significant water over roads in places..

Please check Laverton and Kalgoorlie-Boulder shire road reports for road closures. These closures are for public safety!

Laverton road reports can be found at https://www.laverton.wa.gov.au/services/roads/road-condition-reports.aspx.

We are located approximately 770km west of Coober Pedy and 550km east of Laverton on the Anne Beadell Highway.

As well as offering roadhouse facilities (diesel, limited supplies of opal/petrol, basic groceries and a campground) we have an excellent display of artwork created by the Spinifex people.

We look forward to welcoming you!

Please feel free to contact us for travel updates.

If you need opal/petrol, please call in advance to check availability. Diesel is always available.
