Hi There,
Looking to travel up to
Broome soon, taking the inland route on the way up and the coastal route on the way back.
Intending to take approximately three days in both directions. Just my wife and I, no pets, no kids (leaving them at
home), Landcruiser and a Tvan in tow, booked in at
Broome caravan park.
Looking to stop off at either stations or
places that aren't the main townships, just looking for pleasant
places to stop off with general amenities. Not looking for hardcore off road
treks, looking for peace, tranquillity and relaxation. It is a holiday after all. Taking the easy option being the blacktop.
Fairly recent personal experiences would be appreciated and not the next door neighbours best friends uncle that went there fifteen years ago.
Thank you very much for all responses I receive.

Hi Martyn.
Why not try going via
Newman, Nullangine then on the Skull Springs Rd to
Carawine Gorge? Before you go ring the owners of Warrawagine Station (Robin Mills) and ask if you can use their access road which runs from very near the Telfer/Ripon Hills Rd
Junction.
From that road after passing through the station go up the Muccan
Shay Gap Rd (it's
sign posted) and the Boreline Rd to the main hwy.
Those roads are all dirt but in good condition and there's some great scenery through there.
Just be aware that if Warrawagine are mustering there could be lots of chopper and motorbike noise, dust and cattle running around at Carawine. Plus they set up
camp there for the ringers.....
Have a good trip
AlanH.
