North on the Peninsular Development Road

Leaving Cooktown we finally start the Peninsular Development Road (PDR) stopping along the way to look at almost everything.
First stop is Spit Rock were controversially we are asked to pay $30 each to do a self guided walk to look at aboriginal art on the rock walls. While it was an experience we will alway question the entry price paid.
Each Roadhouse has its own personality and we enjoy camping at Hann River, Archer River and Bramwell. All offer unpowered sites, food, drink and amenities.
Not experienced enough to do the Telegraph Track on our own we venture down to Palm Creek and watch a few cars do some big drops down into the creek.
Burn offs in the area make early mornings spectacular and we wonder between termite moulds watching the sun rise.
This road is like no other that we have ever travelled.

Awesome rock art but we thought the price each was excessive, the donation mentioned sounds more reasonable. Love the experience, thanks for sharing Sharyn & John. 😊

@@gibbosroadtripadventures thanks for the support, really appreciate it. It’s a shame so many people talked about the cost and not the art. Cheers Sharyn

Thank you Sharyn and John, for another interesting and enjoyable episode.
I agree $30.00 each seems a bit steep.
Continued safe travels 😊

Thanks for watching. Seems everyone thinks $30 is a bit steep. Hopefully, they all find agreement and people get to enjoy the art while feeling comfortable not ripped off. Cheers
