Hi , Wondering if anyone has traveled this road with a van.  How steep and winding is it.  We will be going thru this area late May.    Rod.

Most people don't have a problem going this way. No real challenge.

There is a freedom camp at Bylong, donations paid over at the shop, has good amenities and very quite.

The other way which has a small challenge is from Denman over to Bylong. There is a railway tunnel that has some history for the railway buffs.

 I thought the "small challenge" was on the section that was common to both routes. There is a bit of a climb over a range but it is no problem to competent drivers driving well balanced rigs.

Thanks Radar and Peter. I will go that route and will definately keep the Bylong camp in mind.

Travelled through last Monday. It is a nice interesting drive. As PeterD said the climb over the range isn't any problem and actually it appears they have just widened a lot of the road in that section. Rod.
