Tourist attraction

👍👍 One of the best drives in the world, best times to drive it are between 10am and 3 pm as there is less traffic. Plenty of places to pull over and let others past, watch out for Wallabies grazing on the side of the road and lyrebirds are often spotted. Stop at Rowans Well to fill up your drink bottle...
