Description

Steep Point can only be accessed by high clearance four-wheel drive vehicle or by boat. Reduce tyre pressure for soft sand access track. No facility to reinflate tyres on exit provided. Advance bookings are required and sites are very popular so booking well in advance is recommended. It is about 185km by road from the Northwest Coastal Highway to Steep Point, including 140km of unsealed road. The last 30km is a soft single-lane track winding around sand dunes. It is essential to lower tyre pressures to 20psi or less to avoid becoming bogged in this remote area. The drive to Steep Point from Denham takes about three to four hours. The Oven is located on the Steep Point cliffs and is popular with people fishing from the cliffs, but is exposed and rocky. Sites are unpowered and suitable for tents and small, high-clearance camper trailers only. No caravans. Generators permitted 8am-9pm. Fires and pets are not permitted.
