This road runs roughly parallel to Cooper Creek and its many channels and can only be driven providing there has been no rain. Its a lovely drive through station properties and ends at the property know as Retreat. The road north of this station also gives access to Welford National Park where we have previously stayed. From here to Yaraka the road is a mixture of bitumen and dirt sections.
We continued along the Yaraka Road to spend the next two evenings camped behind the Yaraka Pub. This is our fourth visit here and we have timed our visit to coincide with pizza night which is held on Friday evenings.
Camping fees are $3 per night which includes all amenities but of course, we have all our own so we park away from those who require power and water.
Sunrises here are always very special and this morning did not disappoint.
Mount Slowcombe rises 350 metres above the surrounding plains not far from Yaraka. It gives panoramic views of the Yangyang Ranges and the small settlement of Yaraka far below.
