Great North Walk - Watagan Forest Motel Closed?

Postby teambob » Sat 04 Jan, 2025 10:45 pm

Hi,

Planning to do a through-ish hike of the GNW in around April.

However the Watagan Forest Motel is listed as permanently closed by Google. Ampol Brunkerville is listed as open. However both phone numbers were disconnected when I called.

Anyone know what is going on? Or good alternative accommodation? Maybe just camp on the Brunkerville trail?

Ring the Service Station? They might know.
If you are going to camp its better to stop up the hill from Heatons Picnic Area before descending to Heatons Gap
