Day 11 - Snowy River Camp to Home via Snowy River Road & Barry Way

649.8 km

Snowy River Road - Victoria side, heavy corrugated not, steep and winding, narrow at places. Gravel road with small pebbles making drive very slippery.
Barry Way - NSW section of the, road condition is similar to the Snowy River Road and with added large and small potholes.
Overall it's not easy driving both roads, a lot of concentration is needed. Though there are many scenic view along the drive there is a lack of stopping point to park safely.

Willies camping ground is a stand out place to camp as there are spots you can camp near the river and close to out house too.
