Suggan Buggan to Omeo Enquiry

Hullo Will
Have a gander at ThreadID: 91289
There are a few others around that time as well - Google the topic (Barry Way/Suggan Buggan) with ExplorOz in the enquiry line.
Cheers

G'day Will, we towed a C/t from Jindabyne several years back with no issues, but we
tracked over McKillops Bridge & round to Bombala, so dont know about limestone Rd
part of it. Yes, it is windy narrow & steep in parts, but with due consideration for the
possibility of oncoming traffic, you will be fine. Surface was good then, someone will
no doubt have more current info. Be aware that you will be on the outside of most
of the steep stuff....no safety fences...:)))). cheers....oldbaz.

G'day Will,

We were recently on the Limestone Road with a Prado and Kimberley Karavan. You don't say what you're towing with, but based on ouor experience I would think you'd have no problems at all with a 2WD in the dry. There are some steep sections so you might need an AWD in the wet, depending on the weight you're towing and the tug. I don't think you'd ever need a 4WD. The road is not particularly narrow (nor wide), so passing on-coming traffic with the Jayco will only need a bit of care and common sense. The campers will have no problem.

As you say the Barry Way/Snowy River Rd around Suggan Buggan is narrow, windy and in places steep. Again, I reckon ok for 2WD when dry, but you may need something more in places when it's wet (I've never travelled that road when wet, so can't give specific comment). In a couple of places passing oncoming traffic with the Jayco might be a bit tricky due to the narrow road and the drop on one side, embankment on the other. Again, the campers won't have a problem provided common sense and caution are applied.

On the windy downhill bits, make sure you have your speed well under control BEFORE you enter a corner. Some of the surface is almost ball-bearing gravel and if you brake to trim your speed going into the corner when it's dry you will understeer toward the embankment or the drop. Basic, I know, but it's easy on that road to get caught out.

Cheers

Andrew, Oldbaz and Frank.
Thanks for the reply's I really appreciate it. All I have received is mainly comments, that you cannot do this track with a camper or a van.
Tow vehicles are a Jayco offroader (widest), Kimberley Kamper (no problems) and AOR Quantum (length width a concern but doable).
We all have 4x4 capable vehicles.
The thread 91289 was very informative, but the majority of comments was in the negative and emplying not to tow anything along this route.
I have sent the thread to the Jacyo and KK couples and it has scared the be-jesus out of them!!!
I have actually driven these roads- Barry Way and Limestone track- and as you have suggested with care, common sense and driver experience it should be fine.
In the wet it sounds like a no go, so I will definitely keep that in mind.
Again appreciate the comments as it is such a spectacler piece of road and scenery.
All the best for Christmas and the New Year.

Regards Will
