My lovely Wife and myself [ both grey nomads ] are in the process of updating from van to motorhome to travel afar as a bit uneasy about towing van long distances. Hopefully will catch up with some fellow nomads along the way! All the very best to all!

Best advice on a route?
(Preview)
Hi all, and Happy New Year. We are heading from Dubbo to Bateman's Bay and back over the Easter period and wondered which route would be best. We are in a Prado towing a 20ft Jayco Journey. I thought via Braidwood might be best, so any advice or comments would be appreciated.
