Can anyone tell me where the turnoff is to the short cut..
I will be going up the Strez and do not want to miss it..
I know it comes out just before the yellow bus, but where is the turn off to get onto it travelling East..?

It's less than 1 km south of Strezlecki crossing.

Hi Chris,
The turnoff is at about 29deg South, just a couple of km before the Strzelecki
Creek crossing and I think you will find a "Road Closed" sign at the shortcut entrance. Put there only to discourage use.
There are a couple of soft sand patches on the shortcut.

Chris Hi,
AS previously stated. Went through about a week ago, just be aware they are doing a lot of road works on that section. Possibly for mining surveys. A very plesant drive.

Chris Hi,
That question covers a lot of sins.
If the camper is reasonably "off" road that is
well constructed and reasonable clearance - Yes.
Some of the roads leading to it would give it a fair shake though. AS always lower your tyre pressure AND speed. Above all enjoy your holiday, that is a very special part of this fabulous country.
Regards Mike.
