Dubbo 4x4 Trips

Sam

Actually sounds great. My wife and I want to visit the Western Plains Zoo at Dubbo and thought we might do a little bit of sight seeing on the way.

I hadn't given the Warrumbungles any thought until you mentioned it.

Are there any 4x4 tracks, camp areas etc or is it 2wd tracks.

Cheers

Route not finalised but will probably travel from Swansea (Lake Macquarie) to Muswellbrook, Scone etc.

Time we will have will be 4 days max for round trip.

Paul,
Wellington caves are excellent, on the site is also the phosphate mine which is even Wheel chair accessible! the caravan park next to the caves is very popular with vaner's & there are a number of areas in the Burrendong rec. area for camping. there are two or three caves to do tours through plus the mine. if going to the warrumbungles remember it get Bloody cold at night time through winter there are signs warning people camping over night to make sure you have anti freeze in radiator or drain it! that said the place has very good camping facilities, powered sites, showers etc.. camping areas to suit most people.

I Had a fun morning in july several years ago in the camping ground at the NP a guy in a tojo went to start up and only got "clunk", motor was frozen. yes his motor had green stuff in it, pitty it didn't have enough glycol in it though. for some reason he didn't like the Idea of building a fire under it to warn the block up so he would have had to wait for it to thaw out.(I hope the poor guy's motor wasn't damaged by the freeze up) It was a very real reminder to make sure you have your coolant mixed properly.
