OK, here's a biggy,
We have a daughter and son-in-law who have 21 days off in May 2014 with a 6 month old son who want to do a
camp trip and 'see the country'. Their criteria is; some 4*4 driving, varying country, not drive every day and then no more than 5 hours and avoid caravan parks. Oh! I've taught them
well!
Anyway, I'm thinking from
Brisbane out through Texas, down through Coonabarrabran, Dubbo, maybe
Hay into
Echuca. Then down to the western end of the Great Ocean Road (ie
Portland west) then into SA returning via the
Flinders Ranges,
Broken Hill and Hebel/Lightening Ridge. We would like to bump into the
Grampians somewhere in here.
However, Oz offers so much you can get overwhelmed and this is a very rubbery plan.
Our rigs will be a 2003 Patrol towing an Innovan and a LC200 towing a 19' Bushtracker.
Any advice on
camp-sights, what not to miss, different route suggestions would be most welcome.
Cheers
Paul
