Within Innamincka Regional Reserve (if it's not too hot) there are some great hiking opportunities, plus canoeing and shady bush camping sites along Cooper Creek, which has deep permanent waterholes. Innamincka Trading Post sells camping permits (per vehicle $12), or you can use a Desert Parks Pass. There's a hot shower ($2) and toilet outside the Trading Post.
