'The FAR NQ Adventure'

This is to be the latest instalment in our line-up of the caravan adventure movies through the Northern parts of Australia, and will show some of the most difficult terrain we've had to venture through to reach some of the most pristine and beautiful spots that Tropical Queensland boasts.

Leaving from Brisbane, the trip starts from Cooktown, to adventure through to the Creb Track, where we had previously given a miss towing a van through, for another try.

From the Creb, we head up and call in to catch back up with our good friend Eddie Deemal on the Queensland coast outside the Hopevale Aboriginal community for an adventurous two day stay, fishing and crabbing in his traditional hunting methods. He is a true gentleman and it was an absolute privilege to again be able to spend some time with his company in his piece of paradise.

Then head through some very difficult, tight soft sand rutted tracks for our first visit to Bathurst Bay.

Later a look at the remote and pristine Chille Beach for some boating, back through the notorious Frenchman's Crossing, including the Pascoe River to come out to the entrance of The Old Telegraph Track.

We re-visit the entire Track, to see how much it had changed in the 6 years since we were last there. Which interstingly, was a great contrast in spots of their difficulty and ease of getting through.

Every spot that was easy last time on 'The Rugged Cape York Adventure' was unexpectedly very difficult and visa versa.

Finishing off at the tip of Cape York.

It will have all that everyone's come to expect from the shows, with a good blend of edge of the seat travel, remote locations, places to see, fishing, crabbing, tips, some very funny bloopers and yes...... Dave & Dad not always seeing eye to eye.
