Day 30: El Questro Wilderness Lodge

Exploring the gorges, swimming holes, tracks and views at El Questro

Chamberlain Gorge resident 

 

A morning cruise on Chamberlain’s Gorge to feed the fish and watch the crocs and rock wallabies. A bathe in the thermal pools at Zebedee Springs. A high walk along a ridge line to Pidgeon Hole Lookout. A swim in the Pentecost River at the Station. Views of sunset from Saddleback Ridge, and dinner at the Steakhouse. The roads around here are steep and rough with river crossings on all of them and alternating patches of soft sand and sharp rocks, so today was as big a test of the car as any other. We also got to do a load of washing in between all that.

Second attempt no better!

Even when she gave up, laughing, it still followed her

You can see the dust trails from the cars
