NERREN NERREN REST STOP

Public BBQ

A huge free rest stop on the highway between Denham and Kalbarri, with enough space that you can camp well away from anyone else on either bitumen or dirt, and tracks running back from the highway so the traffic noise stays distant. There are covered tables and benches, plenty of bins, fire pits, shady trees and two dump points. You need to be fully self-contained: there is no water anywhere on site, not even at the dump point. The composting toilets are a lottery, found spotless and well stocked by some and in a genuinely poor state by others. The flies here are notably worse than at comparable stops, which visitors mention almost without exception. Expect some noise from idling road trains overnight, and give it a miss in February and March unless you have power for air conditioning.
