Hi , we have just completed the AB from West to East, took 8 days from
Laverton to
Coober Pedy, the track was generally in reasonable shape through to Emu, however from there through to the Dog Fence it would be fair to say it was quite bumpy , slow speed and low tyre pressures help somewhat. The rest of the track had some very good section along with some not so good ,but no worst than you would expect on most outback tracks. The scenery was fantastic and was ever changing , we went into the light plane crash and also to
Voakes Hill it self which is 25km round trip both of these detours are are quite fun to do and had no problem towing our camper in and out of the plane wreck however the Voakes
Hill track is not suitable, suggest leaving it at the turn off which is approx 10kms West of the Voakes Cnr
junction .Fuel was $3.00 a litre at the one roadhouse, which is probably a fair price for how isolated it is . In all it was a fantastic trip that we completed with or good friends Robyn & Bevan and would recommend it to anyone who is
well prepared and loves the outback.
Cheers Rod
