At the old crossing of the river it is best accessed from the east off the Diamantina Development Rd about 18km SW of Charleville. The site has been over used and looks trashed, but with the river crossing now to the south this site’s habitat may improve. There is a large waterhole here that will hold water a long time after rains.
