The Murranji - a waterhole, a region, a track - a legend. Although only 240 kilometres long, of all the hard stockroutes in Australia the Murranji Track gained one of the fiercest reputations.

The story of the Murranji Track is a story of determiantion in the face of neglect and indifference. For years requests were made for the Government to improve water supplies, to clear a corridor through the scrub, to wipe out poisonous plants, to establish stock reserves, and for years little was done.
