Hi Everyone,
As part of a
Melbourne to
Cape York and back trip in July-August i am Looking at going from
Innamincka to Camerons Corner (via Moomba) in early August, just wondering what the road is like and if it can be done in a day with camper trailer?

We just came back from out there we travelled from Cameron's corner to
Innamincka via Omicron and Epsilon and then on to the old
Strzelecki Track all really good tracks did it in under half a day. Just watch out for
sign posts not many out there.

Hi.
We did Tib to
Innamincka via Moomba easily in a day during
Easter this year. The only issue is the corrugations from Moomba to
Innamincka. How robust is your campertrailer? We were not towing but were down to walking speed in our Pajero several times particularly during the last 60 km into
Innamincka. Other than this section, there should be no dramas with a trailer.

Your still two to three months away, road conditions can change very quickly so it may be better to ask this question just before leaving.
When we are planning a trip across areas where conditions can change we always have 2 other routes planned just in case.
In good conditions yes it can be done in one day depending on your skills, vehicle and trailer BUT get some rain and it can change the whole scenario.
We have been caught out before thinking we can go one way only to find out they had 50mm of rain further up making the track impassable.

We went from
the Dig Tree to
Cameron Corner last year and it was raining. Easily done in a day, but it was very slippery in
places. We towed a Tough Country camper trailer. Loved every kilometre.
