The day had come – we were finally doing it and crossing the border into NSW. For so long it had been closed due to COVID and I must admit even though the government had given assurances that we would never go back to that, a little bit of trepidation creeped in when crossing atContinue reading “Pindari Dam”

Inverell
We had certainly had a great run of remote off grid campsites in fact we hadn’t plugged the camper into power for a couple of months but at Inverell we fancied playing a bit of golf and doing some mountain biking and so picked a campsite just outside the town centre as our base. ItContinue reading “Inverell”
Armidale
We needed our car serviced and after a few attempts to get this sorted at Stanthorpe and Inverell and realising we would have to book ahead, we decided on Armidale. We had also already visited Armidale a few years ago and knew the town itself was lovely, there was a decent caravan park in townContinue reading “Armidale”
Uralla
On our way towards Tamworth we stopped at Uralla just 20km down the road as we had read that we could camp on the local golf course there and when we arrived we found that there were indeed four campsites all empty right by the 18th hole. We decided to stay the night and enjoyContinue reading “Uralla”
Tamworth
After the shortest of stops in Uralla we descended another 600m in altitude to Tamworth. Sarah was taking antihistamine for her bite on her ankle which has caused her ankle to swell up to a fair size so our plan on arrival was just to set up camp and relax for a couple of days.Continue reading “Tamworth”
Lake Keepit
While we were out mountain biking in Tamworth, we met a local lady who told us the tracks in Gunnedah were equally as good if not better and we hadn’t really decided on our next destination so thought it would be as good as any. We had also been recommended by someone along the wayContinue reading “Lake Keepit”
Coonabarabran
After enjoying our stay on the last golf course which offered camping we were excited to go and visit Coonabarabran Golf Club where they also offered free camping. This time we weren’t quite on the 18th green but certainly close enough. In fact there were another 6 campers at the site but it was quiteContinue reading “Coonabarabran”
Coolah
Another day, another country town starting with C with a golf course and great Chinese Restaurant 😂😂 . This time it was Coolah and with a population of under 800 it was one of the smallest towns we had stopped at, though of course it still had two pubs. Only an hour drive from CoonabarabranContinue reading “Coolah”
Guerie
This entry was originally going to be titled Dubbo as that’s where we thought we would be staying. However on arrival in Dubbo we weren’t overly inspired. Not that there is or was anything bad about the place it’s just that a lot of these towns reach a certain size and with that they gainContinue reading “Guerie”
Forbes
Our next destination was Forbes. For no real reason other than it was south which is the direction we were heading, under two hours away and going off our campsite app there was a nice caravan park and of course a golf course. The first campsite which was at the Showgrounds was vetoed due toContinue reading “Forbes”
