Lakefield National Park

Rather than driving all the way up the Peninsula Development Road we drove through Lakefield National Park for part of the way. There were plenty of lagoons and creeks throughout Lakefield. The road was a pretty good track. We had lunch at Musgrave where we rejoined the PDR. From here it all went downhill. The road was in very ordinary condition with sections with dust holes. It was near one of these where an on coming car flicked a stone, sounded like a rock, which hit and shattered the drivers side window. Although we couldn’t see out of it, at least the window held, so we went covered in glass and dust when we arrived in Coen. We camped off road just north of Coen for the night. Unfortunately to top a bad day off we opened the door to a van full of dust. A G&T restored our well-being Followed by an easy to cook delicious meal of lamb kofta wraps.Read more
