Oodnadatta is a remote location and care should be taken getting there. Check track conditions before leaving home as the Oodnadatta Track can be shut down by rain. Make sure you have plenty of fuel, water and food supplies for your trip.
The first cache to be placed in this "interesting" location.
The Pink Roadhouse (so-called because it is painted bright pink) is a focal point for the town, providing petrol, a general store, meals, post office facilities and canoe hire. Although they really have canoes (also painted bright pink), it is not clear where to use them in the surrounding area unless the local waterholes are recently filled.
Oodnadatta is serviced twice weekly by the Coober Pedy Oodnadatta One Day Mail Run. The OKA mail truck also carries some general freight and passengers[6]. Road trains bring weekly supplies of food and fuel etc from Adelaide. Royal Flying Doctor Service and charter flights use the Oodnadatta Progress Associations' local all weather WW2 airstrip which houses an automatic weather station.
PLEASE DO NOT DRIVE TO GZ.
IT REALLY IS NOT FAR TO WALK.
PLEASE DON'T LEAVE TYRE TRACKS THAT COULD LEAD THE 'LOCALS' TO THE CACHE.
There is a museum in the old Ghan railway station, and a staffed Medical Centre. (Info from Wilipedia)
There is also a General store and....a pub to explore.
