Coward Springs Campground, on the Oodnadatta Track can be a destination in itself. It is an oasis in the driest part of outback South Australia. Campground trees can be seen from afar in the flat open landscape. The campground offers safe, low-key, sheltered and peaceful camping.

Most campsites are in the shade and shelter of trees and date palms that were planted when this was a thriving railway siding on the old Ghan Line. Other sites are sheltered by more recent plantings of local native trees and shrubs. There are no generators after 5pm or in the mornings. Facilities are built from recycled railway and telegraph line materials. There are some surprises in the details that give you a sense of being in Outback South Australia.

Many campers extend their stay to explore the area at a relaxed pace. The ‘natural spa’, nestled among the wetland rushes, is revitalising after being ‘on the road’. The Engine Drivers Cabin, one of two heritage-listed railway buildings, is open for campers and day visitors to browse displays, reading materials and artwork for sale.
