heyho,
Kings Hwy. to
Batemans Bay - turn left.
You might save a few minutes if you turn off left just after? Nelligen and head up the 'old coast road.'? and drive like a maniac until you come back out onto the highway just North of
Batemans Bay.
If there is a quicker way, I'd sure like to know too!
cheers

Canberra - Bungendore -
Nerriga (stop for a beer or coffee)-over the Sassafras Range down to the Nowra/JB
intersection VR to the Princes Highway on the Trupentine Road. At Princess Highway
junction TR and
Ulladulla is about 20 minutes south. Not the fastest route by any means but sure is the most scenic and if'n you have a 4WD the most interesting way to go. You can also TR just short of Tianjarra Falls down the Tianjarra Firetrail but you will need to ring the Morton NP rangers for permission (this track is closed sometimes for
bridge work and I don't know if'n its open at the moment). But if it's speed you need go down the Kings Highway to BB turnoff and TL at the Princes Highway...about 45 minutes later in
Ulladulla.

Patrol 22 is right, the
Nerriga trip is more interesting and whats more you do not have to go down that boring Clyde Mnt. As a matter of a fact there is no mountain so to speak. After
Nerriga there is a slight climb, a couple of k's, then a slight sloop down to the coast. However the road from
Nerriga down is b...dy rough at times ( thanks to the Shoalhaven council & DMR ).
May I suggest however that rather going all the way down to
Braidwood, do not turn at Bungendore but go straight through to
Tarago cross over the Goulburn/
Braidwood road and take the second road, Cullulla Rd. (the
Tarago tip is on the left - and if you come to dirt road go back a bit), go to 'T' intersec. turn left then next 'T" intersec. turn right to
Nerriga. The last time I travelled this 100k/h road all but approx. 6 kilometres was sealed, just watch some of the bends as they are not speed marked. NOTE: If the
Shoalhaven River is in flood there is a low level concrete crossing!
Go 4 it, Gummo

Thanks for your help guys, i normally just travel along the kings highway to batemans and then head left up the coast but have heard of a couple of these other routes, mostly offroad ones and new that some of you guys on the
forum would know a fewe of them. Thanks for your help.
