We're thinking of spending a couple of days at the eco-lodge camp ground in Karijini National Park in WA, but we're not sure whether the road in is suitable for our standard non-offroad van.  Has anyone been there?

Bitumen all the way except for the last 2 km or so into the campsite itself. Good quality formed gravel road - I went in there three years ago with a standard Nissan Maxima and didn't have any problems at all.

Welcome to the site. If you can't get in or don't want to drive on the entry road, you could stay at the Auski Roadhouse C/park or Tom Price C/Park and drive in from there as a day trip.

Regards
Vic

Hi we were in there a couple of  months ago. Although only in our Hiace.    I dont think you would have any problems. As we saw lots of big rigs all over the park.  Unsealed Park roads were in good condition then. 

P.S. Had a few good nights free camping at the Albert Tognolini Rest area.  Above Munjina Gorge Road (Munjina Gorge Lookout), and South of Auski Road House. Lovely views and walks.

Regards
Mike and Ellie
