Day 71 Sun 22nd June

Today we headed off to Undara, we had a 430 kms drive so most of the day was spent driving with little time to look around. We had lunch at Croyden, one of the old gold mining towns and the driving force for much of the early development in the Gulf Savannah country. Undara is a former cattle station acquired by the government for its unique lava tube formations. The former owner had started a tourist project to show visitors and when the station was changed to national park he was able to gain a 10 year exclusive access to the park to continue the tourist operation.

The Undara Resort is located in a beautiful bush setting. The camp site we have looks out into the bush with not a sole in front of us, just lots of birds, wallaroos and a few small bettongs (rat kangaroos)
