Ep 320 | In the Middle of Nowhere and Everything is CLOSED! Outback Road Trip, Western Australia

We leave El Questro after a wonderful stay and make our way along outback roads with many water crossings. We pass the Pentecost River and check out the spectacular Pentecost Valley.

Next, we head to the Durack River and stop for the famous tea and scones at Ellenbrae Station, but unfortunately, it is closed too! We find a hidden oasis in the bush, and Mavi gets to have a little fly.

We find Aboriginal rock art, crocodiles and Wandjina. We pass by the Mount Barnett Roadhouse, but the campground is closed.

We attempt to pull into the Birdwood Downs Station but that is closed too.

We are traveling at an unusual time of year, near the end of the season, and it’s difficult to find anything open!

We cross the Barnett River and eventually find an amazing camp spot by the banks of the De Grey River. It’s stunning and we have it all to ourselves.

We continue on our road trip and pass through Marble Bar, Nullagine and the mining town of Tom Price.

We make a turn to head south and are confronted with a road-closed sign. It’s a 300+ kilometre detour to go around!

Thanks for watching.

Until next time…

Wendy and Magnus
