Hi all im looking at later this year, sometime after august going to coffs harbour for a camping/4wding weekend will be looking at ariving friday and leaving Monday.
Im looking for easy to medium tracks to do but will tackle harder tracks if needed.
My 90 series prado is standard height with 235/85/16 MTs and i will be running a winch by then too.

Also ill be leave for the north side of brisbane QLD.

So i have a few questions to help plan the weekend and all advise is appreciated.

What are the camping spots like and recommendations of were to stop?

Are the camp site free or is there a fee and if so were do you pay?

Recommended track/areas to take/areas to goto?

and any other info that might be helpful is appreciated.

also if there is anyone wanting to come along let me know. i will be travaling with my 2 sons age 6 and 8 by then and hopefuly a mate or 2.

G'day Shane,

Hasn't been much advice forthcoming. You could try this for National Parks camping sites http://www.nationalparks.nsw.gov.au/camping-and-accommodation

Maybe youtube can help with some tracks, I think Callinan did an episode around that area might be worth a look up.

Or this link http://www.offroadadventureshow.com.au/episodes/  go to season 2 episode 1 is in Coffs Coast might get some ideas,

Don't know the area myself but hope this helps.

Will be keeping an eye out for your next local adventure, couldnt make last weekend got cast off my hand today.

Cheers

Ray
