Planning a weekend trip to Abercrombie if anyone is interested now the weather is warming up.

Rough plan
Camp at Bummeroo Ford
Saturday Driving the park. it is about a 30 min drive from the campsite to the park entrance.
Most of the park is suitable for stock Prado with good AT tyres.
Drive rating easy / medium.
This can change if there has been rain as some of the tracks are steep and become very slippery when wet.
I have read that some of the more difficult sections have been graded by the National Parks.

Sunday there are a few tracks to explore near Bummeroo camp site. i have not done any of these tracks.
Depart Sunday afternoon.

Any takers let me know.

Fred

If you are looking for a track that's a little more challenging, I recommend the Little Bald hill track. Its in the SE corner. Probably rates Medium in Tassie.

I hope you have a great time. Its a great undeveloped area.

Little bald hill is one of the tracks they have graded from what I hear still very steep but no rocks.
A bit of water would make it very interesting, it will be come a big mud slide.
I backed away from it one time we were there, I sank up to my ankles in the red clay while trying to walk up it.

Agee in the dry it would of been rated medium in Tassie.

Check out the caves if you have time. My girls and I thought they were great. Have a safe trip.

Unfortunately I can't make this trip this weekend guys, just too much to do at home. Should be a good weekend for you though, especially with a bit of rain and storms predicted around the area for the end of the week.

Have a good one.
