What’s peoples travel plan for getting to “The Stop”?
It’s ~ 1,350kms from Sydney at best and ~ 2,000s for Brisbane.
That is 2 solid days for Sydney and 3 from Brisbane.
I’m considering going up and over through Broken Hill.
Maybe leave on the weekend before and take a few days.
Going home we might just do a run to Melbourne to visit our son and then home in a day

I did Fremantle to Valla last year via broken hill and personally a far better route than the hay plain which I had done previously. Sydney to BH is s long day but possible, I’ve stopped in Wilcannia previously at thd caravan park just east of town was okay.
Safe travels all

Nyngan Riverside Caravan Park has always been a good stop for us. I think they're back operational after the floods. Cobar has a good Caravan park as well and is an easier days drive to the Hill. Also try the pies from the Cobar Bakery!
