We're going to travel up to
Cape Leveque from
Broome and am wondering whether or not we need a treg hitch on the camper trailer?

Hi Frances, you should not need anything other than a normal towball. This time last year, out of a total 200km there was only 90 km of dirt and it is not a 4WD track, just a dirt road. Now it could be corrugated, depends when the
grader last went through, and keep to the 28 80 rule - tyres at 28 psi and don't exceed 80 kmh.
You must call in at
Middle Lagoon and
Chile Creek. Walk around the actual Cape at low tide, watch the sunset from
the balcony at the new
visitors centre or from
the beach. Leave
Broome now at May rates and when you're back in a week it's high season! Enjoy.......W

Warries response is spot on---a highly overated 4wd road.Been up there 3 times and you certainly do not need a treg hitch unless travelling during the wet when things can change dramatically.Yes go into
Middle Lagoon as it is agreat spot and in my opinion a much better place to
camp than the caravan park at
Cape Leveque.
