We are thinking about towing a 2t van to
Lightning Ridge from
Brisbane over the Christmas break.Tug is 08 TD Prado both van and car good condition.
Any suggestion for a mid way stop?
Bit concerned about the temps (high 30s) for towing.
thanks

Geoff, I am
Brisbane based these days but originally from Moree, and lived there for the first 50 years of my life.
Brisbane-Moree is 5 hours normally by car, so I'd say about 7 1/2 with a Van.
Stay at the Gwydir Caravan
Park, which is safe secure and has their own Hot Thermal Mineral
Water Spa (whicb of course Moree is famous for).
The run out to
the Ridge the next day, via Collarenabri, and then towards
Walgett (turn off before you get here) is about 3 1/2 hours so say 5 with a Van.
Hope that helps, any other questions just ask, clearly having lved out that way for so long I know the place pretty
well.

G'day
You do not state if you want
bush camp or powered site
But if its a nice
free camp you are after then its
Nindigully Pub near
St George
We always
camp there when passing that way
