Anyone know what the road into Moonlight Is like at the moment? Particularly the bit after the hairpin bend were ground clearance can be a problem… Have 2wd van
I went up there about a month ago was algood seen a little car in the car park and other non 4x4 the hairpin has a bump or 2 not as bad as I’ve seen it
pity they dont maintain that road better. ive been a few times and been pretty dodgy in my 2 wd car. last time i didnt even risk going up. was really bad just over the bridge but that was a long time ago.
I went up.a few hours after posting the question & van bottomed out on the rough bit just after the bend about 1k from the camp… My van is long wheel base bugger all clearance so it was a no go for me… Went to Howard instead
Anyone been into moonlight recently. What s he road like, and is the stream now a ford with no bridge? I have a 2wd hiace van. Never been before and keen to walk the track and check out the history.
What’s this comment about the bridge ?
@Goldsborough: trying to figure out the access. Looking at the old comments and trying to get some clarification on the state of it.
Definitely a bridge there i went there a few weeks ago and the road is the best i have seen it
I had been going there for a few years in my 2wd long wheelbase Hiace van and it was always touch and go at the horseshoe bend about 1km from the camp, I bottomed the van on two occasions and in feb 2023 it was impassable in my van, the road gets ripped up by 4wd vehicles on the rise just past that corner and exposes the bedrock causing low vehicles to bottom out, apart from that its a good road as long as no trees down. last time I went I parked just past the bridge and Ebiked in.
