Bremer Bay to Esperance

The Remote South East was a Road Trip with a difference – very few sealed roads, lots of beaches, numerous tracks and quite a bit of forced cross country travel to get around fallen trees and other obstacles. The first leg of our journey was from Bremer Bay to Esperance along the coast. Departing Bremer […]

With Australia Day 2021 falling on a Tuesday we were presented with the opportunity to have a five day/four night Road Trip to Western Australia’s spectacular south coast. Ten vehicles left Harvey and headed to Brunswick Junction and the Brunswick Hills. We didn’t tackle any of the difficult/extreme tracks for which the area is renowned, […]

Drive Darling Scarp

The ‘Holiday Hiatus’ (xmas to New Year) is an ideal time to get away. Our version of ‘Romjul’ allowed us time to recce the southern part of Drive Darling Scarp – an awesome 4WD Road Trip in preparation. The plan was to drive south from Karragullen to Pemberton, following the Darling Scarp as closely as […]

Lennard Track

Lennard Track is a 12 km drive through Wellington National Park starting where River Road crosses the Collie River and finishing at the top of Mount Lennard where Lennard Road enters the National Park.

Harvey Weir Hills, Tracks, Ruts and Holes

Dalwallinu Wildflowers Road Trip

A four day tour of the Pithara/Dalwallinu area in early October 2020. Our Road Trip was a little bit late for the best of the annual spectacular wildflower display, however, this was no loss as the locals believed that the season was less than optimal anyway. Trip Leader Matt Hall arranged for us to camp […]

It was a genuine 4WD trip with plenty of challenging, tight, overgrown tracks and spectacular scenery is some of the prettiest parts of Western Australia. Day 1 Saturday 12 September 2020 We left Byford and […]
