"The Great Central Road"

S1E27 (RELOAD) - We travel East to West for 1222km along the iconic Great Central Road which is part of The Outback Way "Australia's Longest Shortcut". Leaving Uluru / Kata Tjuta, this journey takes us 3 days to cross some of the most remote territory in Australia. This is a bucket list adventure for us.

How were the corrugations on the gravel sections? Thanks for the great rundown.

[@greataussieodyssey]

thanks for watching 🙏🏻 corrugations on GCR are relatively tame if tyre pressures are lowered (about 50% reduced) & drive to conditions

[@GrantBonnell-zq1gd]

What month was it that you drove across

[@GrabLifeByTheGourlays]

That was awesome guys!🙌🏾

[@greataussieodyssey]

[@steveelliott9426]

hey guys - great video! looking to do this in a AWD Nissan X-trail in a couple of weeks - how were the corrugations?

[@greataussieodyssey]

Thanks for watching. The road is currently in pretty good condition and you will have no problem with your vehicle. Recommend tyre pressure dropped by 50%

[@myrtheoosting8145]

Hey may, do you think we can do that with a 2WD Van (length 5.6m hight2.8m width 1.8m) 4cylinder engine. Thanks for your help :))

[@greataussieodyssey]

yeah will be fine - just take it easy, lower tyre pressure & drive to conditions

[@myrtheoosting8145]

@@greataussieodyssey thank you! We'll start tomorrow!

Nice to see road open again , rubbish is a big issue at free camps. Why can't people respect others and take there crap and dump it legally

[@kellyndarenhembra7237]

When did you drive the Great Central? Is it since it reopened so in the last couple of days or is it prior to it closing…. Just trying to work it out! Thanks guys

[@greataussieodyssey]

A couple of months ago, after a previous closure

[@kellyndarenhembra7237]

@@greataussieodyssey ok thanks. We’re looking to cross it in July but know it’s only just opened now after being closed since Early March.

A lot of the rubbish is from the locals
