Longitude134.9816667 (134° 58′ 54″ E)

About 60km NW of Oodnadatta on the Oodnadatta Track on the Wooldridge Ck, a track from the main road leads a short distance down to the waterhole. This is a small waterhole so may be dry. There is pretty good woodland along the creekline. The problem is that the cattle have trashed the ground cover around the area, with the water quality when it’s there being poor.

Camp rating 6, when there’s water in the waterhole there will be cattle, there are no facilities.
