Just thought I would remind people that SA now has fire restrictions in place with the Fire Season being brought forward due to dry conditions, so when you park please leave your matches in the van, you could be fined or worse you could cause a bush fire. Remember your fire can be in control and still star...

Has anyone used the private road which is adjacent to the Karratha turnoff and runs to Tom Price and then through the two WA National Parks to come out near Newman? Apparently its a gold coin donation to use it, but not tar sealed - is if ok to tow a standard 'van down it, or is it too rough and what about throu...

Road was very good...but from Mungo to Mildura was corrugated most of the way.

Hello. Heading off to Central West end of this week. Wondering if anyone knows if Blackall woolscour is open for visitors (wasn't July 2013); and what is the situation with water at Quilpie? Is it suitable for visitors to drink, cookin, etc. Only asking because water quality/taste varies wherever o...

Hi all, Can anyone tell me the road conditions are from Cairns to Cape York? Is it sealed or if it is dirt what would be the best time to go? Could I take my caravan to the top?

Hi all we are planning on going to Griffith next week via the newell and would appreciate any tips on the state of the road, steep hills and good places to stop. Our rig is 19m long and she hates any hill work. We await your advise cheers

Hi, We will be travelling to the Flinders Ranges in mid-September and I am keen to tackle some of the 4WD self drive tours. We have a Jeep Grand Cherokee and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on trips to undertake. We will be possibly staying at Hawker and Rawnsley Park. Regards, David

Thought I'd mention that today we travelled from Batemans Bay to Canberra and back again, up the Clyde and the Kings Highway. Only one spot with roadworks on the Clyde, the rest of the works seem to be competed for now and the road is good. On the return journey, no roadworks in progress at all - a good tri...

Had trouble finding anything up to date on the section on road but went ahead and did the run from Goondiwindi to Tenterfield and then on to Lismore. We tackled it in an NT pajero diesel towing a 21ft van about 2300kg loaded. The section through to Tenterfield was narrow and not without badly damaged sec...

Can anyone recommend a good towing route (with a 24' van) travelling Melbourne to Batemans Bay (departing Aug 2014)? Some folks have suggested Yass, Bungendore, Braidwood although I hear that Kings Hwy is undergoing significant road works. With a long and heavy load, (where possible) we are loo...

Can anyone provide some recent info on the road conditions between Nockatunga and Tibooburra? Would I be able to tow an On Road Caravan with care? Thinking of travelling this way to South Australia via Broken Hill, next month.

Will be heading this way in 4 weeks and just wondering if anyone has driven on it recently and can update me on the condition as it is meant to be a major off-road. Will be towing a small off road caravan but if its going to be too rough may just continue on the Great Northern Hwy.

We originally planned to travel this road as we heard a rumour that it had been sealed. It isn't sealed, it is corrugated, rough and dusty. We regret towing our van over it, now busy cleaning dust out of everywhere!

Travelled the Kidman way from Goolgowi to Bourke. A great road, good surface. My only gripe is the lack of rest areas along the way.
