No need for a 4wd to go to
Weipa mate just watch out for some of the dips around Archer River.
We were there a few weeks back and the road was good as I have ever seen it.
A lot of road works at the moment and more and more bitumen all the time.
The longest stretch between bitumen stretches was about 50 k.
Of course there are some rough sections but nothing that will give you trouble just drive to the conditions and let a bit of pressure out of your
tyres at Lakeland.
Fishing can be a bit tricky without a boat at
Weipa but if you travel about 90 ks further north to Mapoon you can catch some excellent fish off the very long stretches of beach and rocks.
Good camp area with
cold showers and permit required
Cheers Ray
PS... Go for it, you won't be disappointed
