Drove that way this week towing a van. Good country but very wet. Camping at Porcupine
Gorge NP but little else
Hughenden to The Lynd......mostly 60kmh sometimes 80 Bitumen and gravel in various stages of repair. Roadworks in three
places
The Lynd to
Einasleigh....rough gravel road with small sections of bitumen. Look at
Copperfield Gorge at E.
Einasleigh to
Forsayth...more bitumen...deep gullies and creeks so slow going and more roadworks.
Forsayth to
Georgetown...some bitumen some gravel
Good
campsite on
Einasleigh River 1km west of Carpentaria Downs Station

Hi SIF 4X4, thanks for the heads up, hoping to be up that way in August. Don't you mean
Cobbold Gorge which is SW of
Forsayth? Can't find a
Copperfield Gorge....W

Hi Warrie
No, its definitely
Copperfield Gorge at the hamlet of
Einasleigh. Its not wellknown or mapped but lies along Copperfield River. There is a low waterfall at the head of
the gorge.
Cobbold Gorge is south of
Forsayth as you mention
Cheers
Spero
