The Canning Stock Route is a track that runs from Halls Creek in the Kimberley region of Western Australia to Wiluna in the mid-west region. With a total distance of around 1,850 km (1,150 mi) it is the longest historic stock route in the world. A 1928 Royal Commission into the price of beef in Western Australia led to the repair of the wells and the re-opening of the stock route. Around 20 droves took place between 1931 and 1959 when the final droving run was completed. In March 2020, the route was closed to tourists due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It was reopened on 14 June 2022.

  • Die Canning Stock Route ist eine Outbackpiste im australischen Bundesstaat Western Australia. Ursprünglich als alter Herdenweg, der für den Viehtrieb von Rindern genutzt wurde, angelegt, gilt sie heute als eine der härtesten und abgelegensten Outbackpisten Australiens. Mit knapp 2.000 km Länge ist sie auch die längste. Sie verbindet den Great Northern Highway in Halls Creek in der Kimberley Region mit dem Nordende des Goldfields Highway in Wiluna, ca. 800 km nordöstlich der Landeshauptstadt Perth. (de)
