Hi All we are heading down to Talbingo this week and looking to do a day trip to the Blue Water Holes and
Yarrangobilly caves. Normally when we trip away we take the 4wd so offroad tracks are no issue. However this time the "handbrake" wants to take her new Kluger as its a "family" trip and we are staying in cabins NOT camping :( "sigh" Anyway.... Im wondering if the above mentioned
places can be reached by conventional 2wd car? What are the roads/tracks like.... thks in advance
cheers Aaron

The Yarangobilly caves are great and deserve to be better known. You probably know this already, but just in case - wonderful
thermal spring warmed swimming pool there also so take the swimming togs.

Pack a BBQ lunch and plan to have it at
the caves.
Fantastic undercover picnic areas with BBQ etc. great areas for kids to run etc.
Kluger will be fine.
Look out for
Brumbies as they are in the area.
The
long plain road talks you to the BWH.
The road to
the caves is one way and you will see the entry first coming from Talbingo and
Long Plain Road is next along the Hwy and then the exit from
the caves so i'd suggest
the caves then BWH

Was there on Sunday and in the
carpark was a Toyota Camry and a
Tarago towing a trailer. The track is a doddle although a front wheel drive would battle back up the
hill if it was wet...

I also camped at
Blue Waterholes Friday/Saturday and there were a few two wheel drives in residence. A large campervan towing a boat came down for a gander as
well but decided not to
camp. Our group had 3 camper trailers which we took out through Dubbo Flats on the Broken Cart track. There were a few fallen trees and bog holes we had to negotiate but nothing serious.
