Hi there - just wondered if you could give us directions to Paroo waterhole? We used to have the Trail in the SPinifex book but have misplaced it (it was in that book I'm sure), Thanks.

The Paroo waterhole is at the centre of this map.

Thanks for the google map. It doesn't really show how we get there. Is it on the road to Gunpowder?

If you zoom in you'll see a track leading south from the waterhole. Follow it back to the road to gunpowder, then south to the highway. There's a couple junctions in the road, hard to describe. But you'll be able to see the path to follow.
