Nundle isn't far from Tamworth. About 3 hours up the New England roughly, so about 5 hours from your place, FB.
The tracks we went on were a lot of fun. We didn't know where we were going, but we still had a lot of fun.
Next time, I have to remember to put the hitch receiver block in!
I don't mind where the event is. I don't think camping @ Watagans is worth it, too many heroes from Sydney go there. Far, far fewer people up Nundle way. The drive up just makes it all the more interesting!
Return trip would be by highway if we're towing though. Not too many rigs could get over those stupid rises they put in the road. I'd have no trouble getting through the 20 river crossings with the van on, but those mounds were stupid.
