The Lost World Highway


Driving east from the small berg of Stratford (All the street names are Shakesperian characters), we drive down the Lost World Highway. This runs for about 100km and passes through gorges, mountain ranges and farmland. The drive is good fun - some good Colin McRae rally moments including a slight skid on a gravel road (expertly controlled I might add) and also we see the North Islands tallest waterfall (Mt Damper Falls). This involves walking through a muddy field with some Bulls looking slightly menacing on the other side of a creek. Martin has bull-a-phobia so turns back. We encounter a few cow jams along the way as well as some Goats having a nosh on the side of the road.
