Hellyer gorge reserve camp area.

The drive here was interesting as we travelled back along the coast road which we had used to get to Smithton originally, so we got to see the sights from a different angle, but when we got to Wynyard we turned off towards Yolla, here the road became more demanding to drive for it dropped from an A class road to a B class and so it was a lot narrower with lots of acute bends and steep hills to climb and the descend (I at times had to switch to manual override to use 2nd gear to get up the hills and also to slow the descent as it seemed there was always a sharp bend at the bottom of the hills.
But when we finally got here we were very happy to find a lovely spot to spend a couple of days. (We are in the trees over the road from the car park).
It is completely off grid here no power no water no phone reception so no internet either but there are toilets (so not fully feral).
We took a couple of walks down to the river to get some photos.
The nights are cool in the trees not cold but cool and very dark.Læs mere
