Travelling along the Matilda Way  or National Route 83 you will come across the Burke and Wills Road, no doubt worth stopping at. The Burke development Road is sealed and will bring you towards Normanton where you can see Krys the Croc the largest Croc ever shot. Whilst up this way should take the time to go to Karumba which is known for its sunsets and fishing. A number of tours are also available at Karumba. The road from Normanton too Croydon is dual lane and only in the wet season my experience short closures for a day or two. As with all roads out this way watch out for cattle and roos.
