The Strzelecki Track is an outback track in South Australia, mostly unsealed but with a few short sealed sections to facilitate overtaking, linking Innamincka to Lyndhurst.^[2] It passes through the Strzelecki Desert. The 475-kilometre (295-mile) track was pioneered by bushman Harry Redford in 1871 and is passable to conventional vehicles during the dry season, although caution is required.^[3] A shorter route is available via a public access road between Moomba and Innamincka, making the distance 458 kilometres (285 miles).^[4]
