Default Duck Creek Rd to O'Riellys-Qld.

Wheeled my more than capable XJ up Duck Creek Rd to O'riellys.Had a great day out.

Highly recommended,easy trip and some huge views to be scoped in.Took about one hour to get to O'Riellys.

Tip-get there by 1pm to see them feed the raptors.

I've done this drive, it's a good drive. If coming from Brisbane I recommend going up using Duck Ck Rd, grab a coffee and come back on the bitumen, not the other way around. A good one if your sitting in Brissy looking for something to do for a day.

yes I have driven it multiple times yes it is true depending on the track conditions you can get up it in 2wd but due to the recent rain you will need 4wd I went there two weeks ago

Fairly dry,got a little sloppy along the top.Well worth the few bumps tho...huge views to be had.Get there before 1PM to see them feed the Wedgetails(cost involved),then do coffee and lunch if you like(with huge views).Short walk(10mins-free) to the treetop walk and then a downhill drive to Cunungra(antique shops/coffee) etc)
