A very
well-appointed bush
camp site; even to
toilet paper in the drop toilets.
Warning - there are 100kms of dirt road to travel, from Womblebank station, which we found utterly treacherous in wet conditions when towing a trailer. The clay used to surface the road turns to slimy mud in rain; driving a 4WD, an expert driver might just make it, but the drag of a camper-trailer makes it impossible. We and our friends (both driving Prados and towing a Coromal Pioneer and a Jayco Eagle Outback) were bogged for four days on this "road" which was more like a ploughed field in many
places.

Yep it is a great place and the
Ranger was very friendly as
well.
Looking forward to going there again at
Easter 2013 for yet another EO Gathering :)
Cheers Kev

We spent 3 lovely days camped at Dargonelly
Rock Hole in October 2010. Had the
camp ground to ourselves and there were only 2 other groups we came across who were camped in the National Park while we were there. Great scenery.

Used to travel this road in early 80's in a HZ Holden ute. Most of the time you had to drive in the table drain due to the road being cut up by logging trucks. Usually took 3 hours to
Injune.
