Does anyone know if there is any camping spots/caravan park at
Eromanga? west of
Quilpie and do they still make their own diesel there?
Cheers Bruce.

Bruce,
We camped at
Eromanga in 1996 so my info is way out of date, but back then there was a very basic
camp ground beside the roadhouse.
If you're looking for a good bush
camp spot then Kyabra
waterhole is about 40 - 50 kms north of
Eromanga and it's a great spot.

Bruce,
They still make diesel & from recolection the fuel at
Eromanga was cheaper than
Quilpie & (I might be corrected) but I thought fuel was availabe 24/7 whereas in
Quilpie fuel was unavailable between midday Saturday & Monday morning. Always good to
check ahead though.

Thanks
John, will have to find a phone no to ring out there and see what's around. I am just want to see if it would be a good trip via
Quilpie on the way to
Innamincka and back via
Thargomindah coming
home.
Cheers Bruce.

Bruce,
If you come
home via
Thargomindah you can make a stop at Noccundra.
Camp on the
Wilson River & there are showers &
toilets near the Hotel. They have fuel but it always is a lot dearer than
Eromanga.
A couple of years back I did
Innamincka,
Cameron Corner (via Orientos & Santos) then
Tibooburra & up to Noccundra. Something different.

John I will

Thargomindah the other or vice versa.
