The entrance to the Drive are as follows:
24 km north of Hawker on the Wilpena Road, and
42 km north of Hawker on the Leigh Creek Road
Either way be sure to stop at the Hookina Creek crossing 16 km from Hawker on the Leigh Creek Road to see the ruins of the railway bridge. Floods destroyed the railway bridge several times, contributing to the decision to close the railway.
