Graphite Valley

A 4wd track with many short sharp creek crossings with steep entry/exit points leads to Graphite Valley, a place with extensive quartz outcrops.

Was wondering if any one had recently completed this track to the end as per explore oz map. May well be over this way in 2024 and keen to find some updates regarding track condition.

David, I don't think many have been that way In recent years. I did the route in 2009 and it was bad and fast disappearing then.

The track east from the main Rudall access track (runs along south side of the river) Was very overgrown this year but with a bit of effort you could push your way along. I don't know if you are able to get across to Camel Rock any more.

Not much help but a blog I wrote on the journey is linked HERE.

Cheers

Mick.
