All the roads in the area are gravel and most will be fine unless recent rain has caused damage.

Which is the best route from where???

Mount Augustus in 2006.

Cheers,

Last time I was there several years ago, the road was hard dirt or limestone from memory, at least from the Meekathara end, the roads often get washed out and closed when they have lots of rain, best to check with the local authorities in town or ring Mt Augustus station.

Sorry, I meant the road from Gascoyne Junction. You can turn north from Dairy Creek?, or from Landor?.

We'll check with the local info people when we get to Carnarvon, wondered if anybody had been there just for a personal view. Thank you for the fantastic photo Peter.

We were there Last September.

Went in via The Ashburton Downs Meekatharra Road from The Munjina Road Turnoff. Then the Pingandy Rd. The road was in very good condition.

Then came out on the Landor, Mt Augustus Road. All were in very good condition. We tow an Avan Cruiseliner with at the time a Mitsubishi Challenger.

A two wheel drive would have had no problems at that time. But after rain it would be different as always on these dirt roads.

Beautiful country at that time of year. Got friends who are doing NP Camp Hosts job there, possibly just now ?

Fuel is available at Mt Augustus Stn CP.
