The PDR is easily done in a 2wd Van. Just take it easy and do not speed.

You did not say which way you were going from Cooktown. So do not take the Battle Camp Road this time of year it will shake you to pieces.

Take the Matilda Highway to Lakeland and up the PDR.

Cheers Tony

Concur on the state of Battle Camp Road.

It's near the top of our Worst Roads in the Country list, just behind the Anne Beadell Highway (because it's longer) and the CSR around Kunawaritji.
