Leaving for Qld soon

Boroma577 · Guru

Jay-Jay, I just traveled up the inland way Qld and there are heaps of travelers on the road.

It was impossbile to get into the freebie at Theodore but I suspect the showgrounds and CPs will be ok.

Most other freebies were ok if you got in early.

Hi Jay Jay when you say you are travelling inland will you be coming through Inverell on your way up to the Sunshine state? There is a free park just before you hit Bundarra and it is on the river and absolutely lovely and peaceful. Lots of caravanners camp there overnight or for a few days on their way through. Thought that info might be helpful to you.
Regards
Michelle

That'll only be a problem on the coastal strip, not inland.

There are any number of places not in the Camps book where you can stop overnight just so long as you feel comfortable in doing so.

Thanks guys for that info,we will arrive Cairns about the 18th/19th June i guess it would be wise to book c/p for there ? We will be staying about 12 days and then slowly making our way back down the coast,do we need to book for there or do you think we can do it a couple of days ahead for each c/p as we dont want to tie ourselves down with having to get from one park to another because we have prior booked so then if we like a spot we can stay longer and not worry that we have booked down the coast and have to get there .Sorry i hope this makes sense.
Cheers Jill
