We have been trying for a number of years, to get to the Betoota races. The weather and circumstances have prevented us.
This year all our ducks seem to be in line.
We had a early start with the intention of making Eulo by the end of the day.
Due to the traffic and road conditions around Toowoomba and Dalby, we decided to go via Warwick and Goondiwindi.
We camped at the back of the Eulo pub and had an evening with the locals in the pub.
The second day was a leisurely start as we only had a short drive to Kilcowera station via Thargomindah. Kilcowera has a variety of accommodation options from the shearers quarters, camping in the grounds of the shearers quarters with facilities to bush camping at the lagoon.
From Kilcowera we travelled to Epsilon station on the SA/Qld boarder.
We left Epsilon and travelled up the Arrabury road. We bush camped alongside a very nice lagoon.
The next day it was on to Haddon corner then to Betoota. We spent three nights at Betoota and left on Sunday after the races on Saturday.
