Are you ready for an unforgettable adventure? Look no further than Camel Treks Australia - the leading camel riding and trekking company in Australia. The founders, Paul and Karen Ellis, bring over 55 years of combined camel experience to the table.

Their passion for camel culture has taken them around the world, where they've lived among nomadic camel communities in Mongolia, India, Arab Nations, Turkey, and the Sahara. Having met at a camel convention in the 1990s, they established their successful business partnership in 1997. Their expertise has been recognised on an international level, having represented Australia with camels in films, photography, and at camel events worldwide.

"We are immensely grateful to our camels for their exceptional care towards people during treks. In return, we ensure that they have the freedom to browse and eat throughout the day. We strongly believe in treating them with kindness and avoid using any harmful control devices, such as nose pegs that can cause discomfort to their sensitive snout tissue or chain halters that can restrict their jaw movement. ​ However, it's important to note that we are not naive or impractical. A loyal employee values their employer, and we strive to cultivate such a relationship with our camels. The only difficulties we encounter are when we take in camels with past traumas. Resolving their trauma requires time, dedication, and patience." ​ Karen Jane Ellis, Director - Camel Treks Australia - Cameleer since 1996 Karen is an outspoken advocate for ethical camel handling and ethical tourism with animals. Please find two welfare articles she has contributed, with links below ~ The Ethical Vagabond article World Nomads article Karen Ellis pictured with Raji, one of her many beloved camels.

Off The Birdsville Track, Clayton Station, Tirari Desert and Lake Eyre Clayton Station has been base camp for Camel Treks Australia's trekking operations in the years 2017, 18, 19, and now for the June - October 2023 season. It is a well known pastoral property situated on the southern end of the famous Birdsville Track in Outback South Australia. It is owned by Shane and Debbie Oldfield. The Oldfield family is respected and synonymous with the Birdsville Track, one of the driest pastoral regions in Australia. The track is bordered by Sturt's Stony Desert, the Simpson, the Tirari and the Strzelecki Desert. Guest Trekkers spend their first night at an oasis-like camping ground along the famous Birdsville Track with facilities including showers, flushing toilets and a hot artesian spa with waters from the Great Artesian Basin. ​ Throughout any trekking journey on Clayton Station guest trekkers can enjoy several opportunities to soak in the Basin waters as well as observe the birdlife which is attracted to these wetlands. ​ The Great Artesian Basin is one of the largest underground freshwater resources in the world. It is Australia’s largest groundwater basin. It lies beneath parts of the Northern Territory, Queensland, South Australia, and New South Wales. It includes the Eromanga, Surat, and Carpentaria geological basins. The Basin spans almost 1.7 million square kilometres which is over one-fifth of the Australian continent. There is around 65 million GL of groundwater in the Basin which is enough water to fill the Sydney Harbour 130,000 times. - Source ~ Dept. for Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water. ​ Clayton Station also allows Camel Treks Australia to access largest salt lake, Lake Eyre, also known as Kati Than­da-Lake which has a catch­ment area from three states and the North­ern Ter­ri­to­ry. The north lake itself is huge, cov­er­ing an area 144km long and 77km wide, and at 15.2 metres below sea lev­el, it is the low­est point in Aus­tralia. The south lake is 64km long and 24km wide. Flood waters cov­er the lake once every eight years on aver­age. How­ev­er, the lake has only filled to capac­i­ty three times in the last 160 years. Treks aim to visit Kati Thanda-Lake where guests may feel a sense of iso­la­tion stand­ing on the dry lake edge and see­ing noth­ing as far as the eye can see – yet with heavy rains and the right con­di­tions the lake comes dra­mat­i­cal­ly to life. When there’s water in the lake, water­birds descend in the thou­sands, includ­ing pel­i­cans, sil­ver gulls, red-necked avo­cets, band­ed stilts and gull-billed terns. It becomes a breed­ing site, teem­ing with species that are tol­er­ant of salinity. Away from the lake, the park fea­tures red sand dunes and mesas. They rise from salty clay­ pans and stone-strewn tablelands. - Source ~ National Parks and Wildlife Service of South Australia. The Tirari Desert, along with the Strzelecki and Sturt Stony deserts, forms the complex of desert country in north-eastern South Australia. ​ The Tirari Desert forms the eastern edge of Lake Eyre and is partly located within the Kati Thanda – Lake Eyre National Park. ​ The vegetation of the Tirari Desert is similar to that of the Simpson and Strzelecki deserts: sandhill canegrass and sandhill wattle cover the dune crests and mobile slopes, while hard spinifex grows on stable slopes and the sandy corridors between dunes. ​ Dune flanks often support a sparse, tall shrubland of acacia, eremophila and grevillea. Saltbush and bluebush are also found on swales and interdune flats. Narrow river red gum and coolibah woodlands are found around permanent waterholes along Cooper Creek. ​ The Tirari is part of the Simpson–Strzelecki Dunefields bioregion.Cooper Creek flows through the Tirari Desert, allowing a corridor of Coolibah shrubland to flourish. The desert also contains salt lakes and sand dunes, which run from north to south. The dunes are covered with canegrass and sparse acacia shrubland. ​ Threatened and vulnerable species recorded in the Tirari Desert include: Ampurta/Crest-tailed mulgara (Dasycercus cristicauda) Wilkiniti/dusky hopping mouse (Notomys fuscus) Fawn hopping-mouse (Notomys cervinus) Grey falcon (Falco hypoleucos) Woma python (Aspidites ramsayi) Source - 10 Deserts Project We recommend the following optional extra schedule, utilising two charter services, to reach our trekking base on Clayton Station in the remote Outback of South Australia from the starting point of Adelaide City.

Cameleer staff wear closed walking boots ( elastic sided work boots or hiking boots, sneakers are okay ) that allow good ankle and foot movement. Outdoor style sandals are not advised for walking due to desert prickles and rocky terrain, however some guests like to wear sandals around the campsite area in the evenings and mornings before the days walk. Socks play an important role in foot hygiene, please bring a daily change of socks. Cameleers prefer bamboo or woolen based socks which breath and provide sufficient thickness within boots. Gaiters and sock savers are excellent for preventing prickles and sand from entering shoes whilst on the move. If you need to buy new shoes, please allow enough time to wear them in. Arriving with comfortable fitting shoes will ensure your feet remain blister-free and you have an enjoyable experience. We recommend packing band-aids and or strapping tape as a back-up precaution.

Cameleers carry toilet supplies in the camels pack bags which can be accessed at anytime once we have started trekking from one campsite to the next. We also suggest carrying a toilet roll, wipes, box of matches and antibacterial gel with you for during the day. Many people ask us how do you do it! There's lots of bushes and sand dunes for privacy, so finding shelter is relatively easy. Most guests are able to wait until we pause as a group for lunch and then they find their private toilet space. We're trekking in an area that's many hundreds of square kilometers, so there's lots of room. We request that after using your toilet paper, please light it to burn with a match. This way we avoid unsightly white streamers so often seen on the sides of roads around Australia. Wait until the paper has burnt and then cover the area with sand. Please use some hand wash or antibacterial gel which we recommend is carried within your back pack during the trek. If you use hand wipes please place this and the match stick in your back pack for disposing off once at camp later in the afternoon. As soon as you arrive in each days new campsite you'll see the toilets will be ready for use, so you're never too long between toilet tents!

This activity takes place near camp, hence there is no hurry and guests can choose whether they wish to rise early or have a sleep in.

Unlike horse riding, camel riding is easy when seated behind the hump in a supportive saddle. Camels unlike horses are generally laid back. We find camels are mostly interested in what tasty snack opportunities they can find to eat throughout the day. They are happy plodding at a steady pace. All of the camels employed at Camel Treks Australia have carried hundreds of people on their backs, and are well used to being with people on treks, including school camps. In years gone by our staff facilitated riding for the disabled with camels, which included lifting otherwise wheelchair bound riders on top. We are very confident that unless a rider has an ear infection or other health condition negatively affecting their balance, that camel riding is an activity the majority of people can succeed in without any prior experience.

Thank you for visiting us on-line, when out in our real world trekking with camels, you'll meet some true characters. In Australia camels are classified as feral animals, they are frequently targeted and killed in major culling programs. It's important for us to share that we are leading the global tourism industry in responsible animal tourism, providing a home for camels that would have otherwise been shot, or destroyed for meat consumption. We strive to make a positive difference to each individual camels life, and provide them with a safe desert refuge. Our vision is for a world where tourism is kind to animals and allows people to enjoy interacting in a positive natural environment. "Camel Treks Australia is committed to ethical and animal-centric practices, strictly avoiding the use of harsh control methods or devices. Unlike experiences where animals might be subjected to strings or heavy ropes attached to pegs, causing harm to sensitive nose tissue, or chain halters that can inflict discomfort by grabbing and locking onto the jaw bone, our guests are assured a peaceful encounter. They meet camels that have been trained with kindness from the outset or rescued camels that have had the opportunity to unwind, breathe, and form new relationships with both their fellow camels and the visiting people. For us, the greatest joy lies in providing a humane and positive experience for both our guests and our camels."
