A Covid outbreak and the subsequent restrictions cut our trip short and we had to rush home. By coincidence our overnight stops were small towns all starting with G: Gulgong, Goolgowi and Gol Gol! While we were relaxing and enjoying the Myall Lakes area, we were keeping an eye on the news relating to aContinue reading “Rushing home via Gulgong, Goolgowi and Gol Gol”

Scenic Myall Lakes area
A visit to the scenic Myall Lakes area, including day trips, walks and birdwatching. Due to flood damage in March, all of Myall Lakes National Park was closed. Instead, we chose to stay at the Sandbar and Bushland caravan park which was close by, in a nice lakeside setting and close to the coast. ThisContinue reading “Scenic Myall Lakes area”

Wonderful Warrumbungles
Challenging hikes, plants and bird watching in the heritage listed Warrumbungle National Park. Unusually for national park camping, Warrumbungle NP provides some powered campsites, as well as hot showers. For our EV travels, having a powered site meant we could arrive from Dubbo with a low battery charge, and charge overnight to be able toContinue reading “Wonderful Warrumbungles”
Nelson, Glenelg River, Robe and return home
A couple of days enjoying Nelson and the nearby Lower Glenelg National Park, then return to Adelaide via Robe, SA. After our detour from Port Fairy to Budj Bim, we arrived in Nelson with a 16% charge. Plenty! But we had mostly been driving between 80 to 95 km/h depending on traffic, hills etc. ThisContinue reading “Nelson, Glenelg River, Robe and return home”
