Batemans Bay – Canberra
Social Weekend Drive
Bookings Close Monday 24 June 2019
Reserve the date for our winter weekend drive for 2019. Book your accommodation ASAP, this is the first weekend of the school holidays.
This event will embrace good driving roads on both Saturday and Sunday and will include mountain passes, sweeping rural valleys, open country stretches, quaint towns & villages and some highways. All this, coupled with good accommodation and fully catered dinners on Saturday & Sunday nights, will make an opportunity for a nice winter escape with other enthusiastic club members.
You may wish to forgo the Sunday drive and head back for Monday work, our first night (Saturday) is at Batemans Bay, affording a comfortable drive home. For Sunday, we are planning a reasonably long drive to Canberra, however flexibility to shorten the drive does exist.
Day 1 – Saturday. The planned start is our regular Bunnings at Casula, through some MacArthur countryside then down through the Illawarra, up Macquarie Pass and back down the escarpment for a lunch break at Kangaroo Valley. Choose from cafés or the Friendly Inn Pub. Then we continue down to the coast road, detour away from Nowra’s frustrating industrial precinct roundabouts before getting back onto the Princes Hwy and down to our 1st night at Batemans Bay.
Day 2 – Sunday. Following breakfast, we will follow the coast until reaching the Moruya River, which will be visible on our left side for some distance. Then its back on to the highway, through Moruya, Bodalla and Narooma before our pit stop at historic Central Tilba. Then continuing southbound on the scenic Princes Highway before westward on some interesting country roads, up the range for lunch. Then open road stretches, a Cooma bypass and up the Monaro Hwy to Canberra
