Drove through the Foreshore CP at Mallacoota today. Over 500 sites - a lot only camping. 6 amenities blocks. Can't imagine what it would be like when it is peak season. Road into Mallacoota we found very windy and not well signed for bends.

Have not travelled with van thru Cunninghams Gap but have previous experienced the Toowoomba downhill run into Gatton with a smaller van and wish to avoid if possible. Is Cunninghams gap at Warwick an ease for towing a heavy van at its maximum weight with Prado. Or Is there an alternative travel opt...

We just had four great days at the Barraba Caravan Park which is approximately 90k's north of Tamworth. We were greeted by Bob Richardson the owner/operator and warmly welcomed. The park is situated at the northern end of the town on the Manilla River. There are quite a few powered sites with water but...

The older you get the more you appreciate that there are good and bad aspects to everything. We love Tassie, this little island we have adopted as home (or, perhaps, they've adopted us, a couple of old 'Mainlanders'. We already reckon we're numbered among them now; only problem is, if anyone rolls dow...

Any travellers that are coming to Cunnamulla.(if not you should) An oasis in the desert almost. The Warrego River caravan park is fantastic, we came for 1 night and have now decided to stay 3 or more not sure yet as the days are gorgeous and sunny. Judy is so very welcoming (and hard working) is a pleasure...

There are six CPs in Eden (NSW Far South Coast) and 5 of them are pet friendly. The only exception is the peak times of Christmas and Easter. Someone recently said how good Garden of Eden CP was. We would agree (it's Top Tourist) but have also found Eden Tourist Park at Aslings Beach is very good. It's adv...

Regression. That's the only word that seems to fit and, y'know, the more I think of it the better it fits. We have just come back after a week in what was once home. 'Civilisation'. 'The Big Smoke'.

Can't recommend this caravan park highly enough, it is in the beautiful south west of WA surrounded by huge trees, next to the river, with lots of lovely bush walks. The facilities are clean, the kitchen is very basic, the town is just a stones throw away, with a new bakery opening up and lots of friendl...

I've spoken about the Gatton-Clifton Road before, but I thought I'd make it a topic. It's a much easier route if you want to come to the eastern side of the range, without using the Pacific Hwy etc. There's also the Esk-Hampton Road, but I haven't been that way for along time, and not with the van, so I ca...
