Hermannsberg

We felt a bit uneasy as we drove in to the Aboriginal mission of Hermannsburg, but thankfully it turned out to be a beaut stop. We stayed 2 nights at the Hermannsburg Historical Precinct ($10pn), which had 6ft barbed wire fencing surrounding it offering some security. The precinct used to be a German Lutheran Mission - the first mission established in central Australia in 1877. It's now a tourist venture and is very interesting to wander through the 140 year old buildings.

We did some serious 4 wheel driving out to Palm Valley. This involved some soft sand and a lot of rock hopping, so we reduced our tyre pressures and had a great time. Had to exit the vehicles several times to pick our lines, guide each other over the boulders and even had to build ramps using large rocks.
