Hugh River Stock Route in the NT [near Chamber's Pillar]

Drove it years ago, a straight forward very easy drive and if you took your time, you could drive it in a Mini

Thanks. When did you do it? I'm wondering if it's the same now - I read one post saying it has a locked gate at the Stuart Hwy end.

ok thanks for that

Drove it some years ago too. It was much better than the Finke road.

Hi Tonyrieko,

Like the others, I drove it back in 2016, towing my 2.6 Tonne off road caravan. it was a very good gravel road back then. Of course things do change.

Macca,

We've been in Alice for the last 3 days and there are definitely buggies and bikes pre-running ATM. Our route was via Kulgera to Finke to Old Andado Station, Saint Teresa. The track from the TO to Mt Dare to OAS was sort of reasonable to Andado Station. From there it was made challenging by all the standing water filling a lot of the normal tracks so there are hard to find bypass tracks everywhere but you will miss some and find yourself looking for a way out and back to a better track at times. From the TO to Mac Clark's reserve to Saint Teresa was rubbish and probably the worst track we've driven in a very long time and I'm comparing it to the Tanami, GCR, GRR and others

Rob

was at Chambers in 2017, and a hire car hilux drove in from the south, always wondered how they got there....thanks :)

Watch for the turnoff sign was only small and says Maryvale, someone drove past it a few times, looking for a sign that said Hugh river stock route, lol
