Cockatoo Creek to Fruitbat Falls

Took it slow this morning, with only roughly 38kms and 2 swimming holes between campsites. One unmarked water crossing would come close to the deepest we've been through so far, all good though with only a little bit of water in the busted toolbox. After about 17kms we had the first marked crossing and the main road not long later for about 7kms. We finally saw what people have been complaining about on the Facebook pages, the corrugations were bloody terrible. Back onto the 4wd track and we stopped in at Fruitbat Falls, what a great spot! We walked down first to have a look, then headed back to change and put on sunscreen, ready for a swim. Peter and Ellen headed off and we hope to catch them again in the morning for the last leg. We spent a while at Fruitbat Falls, there's a top section which is mostly a rock shelf and some big holes that are like your own personal jacuzzi, and the bottom under the falls. Such a great spot, honestly! We only headed off because we (me) were getting hungry. Ham and cheese wraps again then back on the road.Read more
