I am looking at run to this location. I have checked the teck notes and have only found one. This of course maybe it ....... but i figure more people have gone there and could say if its worth the effort as i'm planning a trip for a couple of people.

The trip includes Bris - Tambo - salvatora - Jundah - Longreach- Emerald - Carnarvon - Bris

Any comments greatfully accepted.

Thanks
Brian

Tambo is worth at least 1 day. Not that much in the town apart from the Tambo Teddies. You can pick up a map and take a walk around the town picking up the sights. Salvator Rosa is a good run from Tambo but we found some heavy bulldust along on the track so just keep your eye our for it. There are a few points of interest at Salvatore Rosa but they are all along the same track and can all be visited quite easily in one day. It's a nice camping area with plenty of fresh water. It would be easy to spend a few days there if you just want to chill out. Not much at Jundah. Longreach, Emerald and Carnarvon Gorge all worth spending plenty of time at. Good easy trip, we towed a campervan all the way around without any hassles
Enjoy yourself

Brian, I live in Emerald and have travelled to Salvator rosa twice and quite enjoyed it It can be easilly accessed from the tambo/ Springsure road. There is a shallow fresh water creek runing through the camping area(which is usually deserted),no facilities, only a pit toilet. There is not a lot of driving to do in the park itself but you can walk for miles following the creek. You can drive across the creek and travel into the park a bit further. It is really only worth a day trip so plan to spend more time at carnarvon gorge,Emerald and longreach. If you would like to know anything else about Emerald, longreach etc let me know and i will try to fill you in, You should also consider the gemfields near Emerald as well. I have live here for 15 years so know the area fairly well.
