We are going to be in Kalgoorlie in the next few weeks and have always wanted to see the statues at
Lake Ballard. We have heard various reports about the road from
Menzies to the
lake - from it's just for 4WD vehicles only, to it's ok for standard cars. Just wondering if anyone has been out there recently and could let us know what it is really like. BTW we have a very rugged Captiva.

A very rugged Captiva will be fine! :-)
It's part of the Golden Quest Discovery Trail, so the roads are
well looked after. Even it isn't on the designated tourist route, the roads in that region are all wide and fine.
You can head out past
Rowles Lagoon and come back via the bitumen, and or head up to Gwalia, just out of
Leonora with it 'living' old village and magnificent State Hotel.
Lots to see, just a bit of driving in between. I'd recommend following the Golden Quest trail if you've got a few days.
