Can anyone tell me if the road from Macksville to Bellingen, via Bowraville & Brierfield is is suitable to tow a van? All replies appreciated.
Cheers Pete

Was n Me hi
We were out that way a few years back and I recall it was very good grade of dirt road, the logging trucks use it along with cattle trucks. I seem to recall less then 15 ks. Of unsealed roadway.
Hope this will help. Ralph

The road has been closed for a couple of years due to flood damage in 2009. It is not possible to get from Bowraville to Bellingen via that road, even in a 4WD. Grantly

Thanks Grantly, I guess that rules that one out. I like to get of the highways & onto the back roads where possible. Great idea Oldbobsbus, I'm a bit short on time this trip.
Thanks for the replies. Cheers Pete

Showgrounds a bit dearer then I would like but its green with plenty of room which I like. Ralph.
PS. Hope you know what I mean, a pretty good spot to veg out. Bugger the cost. Ralph
