Gulgong to Wellington NSW


Just wondering if there are any issues pulling a medium sized van along this road?

Also curious if there is a 'van friendly' app or mapping service that will highlight gradient and tight corners?

Semi-trailers use thei road so you should be OK. If you can take your rig up Bellbird Hill you should be able to travel any of the sealed highways in Oz. If you can't get your rig up Bellbird Hill then there is something wrong and you should be checking the loaded weight of your tug and van.

Hi Tony. We have travelled that road a couple of times over recent years and you will have no trouble there. Regards Rod.

 Excellent, you are fully prepared to go to places like Tasmania. There are some hills worse than Bellbird Hill but if that hill does not faze you you should be able to tackle any main road condition.
