Get to Know Our Camel Family

The Heartwarming Stories of Camel Treks Australia's Cherished Companions

 

At Camel Treks Australia, every camel carries a unique and inspiring story—a testament to resilience, trust, and second chances. These incredible creatures come from diverse backgrounds, each journeying through their own trials before finding a safe and loving home in our care.

​

Some of our camels have endured challenging pasts, arriving with visible scars—both physical and emotional. With patience, kindness, and time, we’ve watched them heal and rediscover trust, proving the transformative power of compassion.

​

Many were saved from an uncertain fate, their paths redirected from the butcher's block to a life of purpose as beloved trekking companions. Others have brought us profound joy, like the youngest member of our camel family, born on Christmas Day 2023—a true holiday blessing!

​

Our camel family spans generations, with ages ranging from spirited adolescents of 12 years to wise elders nearing 40. Each camel embodies a distinct personality, reflecting their intelligence, adaptability, and innate connection to the vast, open landscapes of the Australian Outback.

​

Thriving in the tranquility of the desert, our camels remind us of the beauty in patience and care. When treated with gentleness, they reveal their naturally laid-back temperament and affectionate nature, forging bonds that leave a lasting impression on all who meet them.

​

Every trek with us is an opportunity to share in their stories and marvel at the grace and spirit of these remarkable animals. They are more than trekking companions—they are living symbols of resilience, trust, and the unparalleled connection between humans and nature.

The Director Karen Jane Ellis and staff of Nomadic Spirit Journeys & Camel Treks Australia extend their gratitude to Shane and Debbie Oldfield of Clayton Station, a pioneering fifth-generation family along the 'Birdsville Track', for graciously allowing us to share their home. We also extend our equal acknowledgment to the Dieri Aboriginal people, the traditional owners of the Dieri lands. We pay our respects to their Elders, past, present, and emerging, recognising and honouring the profound spiritual connection that Aboriginal people hold with the Country.​​​
