TO DO
Next step on the quest to get access deeper off road, we upgraded from the trusty Kluger to a Landcruiser Prado. Look for some uplifted activity on this blog in 2019!
Easter Weekend 2017 – Hired a Kombi called Beryl for a short road trip around the northern Port Stephens area. Spent a few nights at Mungo Brush camping ground. A lake one side and a beautiful remote beach on the other. Lots of bush walks as well, we did the Old Gibber Track/Johnson’s Beach Trail to Johnson’s Beach. A lovely lakeside beach with camping accessible by boat only. Sent time on Bennett’s Beach in Hawks Nest, retiring to Newcastle via Karuah. Spent a night on the Karuah shoreline a very tranquil spot. A great long weekend just 2.5 hours from Sydney. We will back as so much more to explore.
1 April 2017 – Moss Vale to Fitzroy Falls. A scenic track on the ridge above Kangaroo Valley. NSW has had a very wet March so the track was very boggy. We had to turn around, but not before crossing a large pool of water that turned out to be deeper than it looked. By a stroke of luck we did not get stuck. The return journey was a bit more to the book, keeping two wheels on the dry ground next to the pond.
Had lunch in Robertson (a good burger at Rockabellas Cafe), and then headed to Belmore Falls. Traversed the river on the weir, which is only about 20 metres from the top of the falls. A great spot!
Stayed over in St. Georges Basin.
21 Jan 2017 – 70km circuit in the Southern Highlands, starting and ending at Nowra. Off road circuit in decent condition, suitable for an AWD. Stayed overnight in St. Georges Basin at a very nice AirBnB spot. Had dinner at Stone Grill in Huskisson [Susan: “Yum!”], very nice steaks you cook yourself on a hot stone at your table. Spent Sunday morning on Chinaman’s Beach/Hyam’s Beach on the whitest beach sand in the world. Highly recommend a visit.
