Propose tavelling the Kennedy Development Road QLD, from Winton to Mount Garnet towing a on-road 20ft caravan. If the weather is fine, should I have any problems?

The road from Winton to Hughenden is sealed and is OK. The road from Hughenden to the Lynd Junction has a lot of gravel surface and different people will describe it differently, check with the locals before proceeding. The rest of the road is sealed. Some of the sealed sections, both ends, are single lane construction, slow and get of the sealed road for large vehicles.

Hi Daryl, have just traveled from Winton to Hughenden via Kennedy Dev. Road. The road is sealed, with some soft patches near Corfield, reduce your speed just south of Hughenden as the road is quite undulated. Being Sunday there was very little traffic.
Safe travels
