The Canning Ball Run- 28th July – 11th August 2026

Join Mark, Clint and Club 4×4 for an epic run up the Canning Stock Route. This will be an awesome trip travelling through some of the remotest parts of Australia.

This trip is planned to take place next year and while it’s 13 months away there is a lot of planning to do. We will be running the bookings for the Trip using the “Expression of Interest” system as we do for all longer trips like this. This allows the Trip Leaders and the Club to gauge how many people are interested prior to more detailed planning happening. Once we have an initial number or interested parties Clint and Mark will start some information and planning sessions.

A brief History:

The Canning Stock Route (CSR) is a 1,850-kilometer (1,150-mile) historic track in Western Australia, stretching from Halls Creek to Wiluna. It was originally developed in the early 1900s by surveyor Alfred Canning to enable cattle droving from the Kimberley region to southern markets. The route is renowned for its remoteness and challenging terrain, making it a popular but demanding destination for experienced four-wheel-drive adventurers.
