Thanks to the guys @ Compleat Angler & Camping Outdoors Gregory Hills for the shout out and review. If you are in the Camden, Narellan area drop in and see the team for all your camping, fishing gear and of course Boiling Billy guides.

4WD treks close to Sydney is by far one of the best guides I have used. With 25 top tours close to Sydney showing full detailed route info on picnic and camp spots, full-coloured easy to use maps.
For over 20 years Cathy Savage and Craig Lewis have been exploring and writing about the Sydney region. I have used this book and earlier editions for the pasted 10 years. Hop into store and pick up a copy today.

We've just rolled into Katherine after completing the epic 62km (5 days) Jatbula Walking Trail through the Northern Territory's Top End Nitmiluk National Park. The trail follows the route of generations of Jawoyn people, commencing at Nitmiluk (Katherine Gorge) it follows the western edge of the Arnhem Land escarpment to its terminus at Leliyn (Edith Falls).
We walked through some of the most spectacular and ancient landscapes in Australia, which are punctuated by spring-fed rivers, which flow strong all through the dry season, offering welcome respite from the searing 40+ degree heat which the area experiences this time of year.
