DRIVING DIRECTIONS
PLEASE NOTE, Lambs Road is best in dry weather. Also be aware that some GPS divices show roads that do not exist.
Use Conlons Road. If you are coming from Childers heading south it is the 3rd left after the Goodwood-Woodgate turn off on the southern side of Childers.
If you are coming from the south, heading north, after the Isis River, watch for the Buxton turn off opposite the BP service station. You are only a couple of kilometers from Conlons Road. Conlons Road is on your right at the bottom of a hill.
Once on Conlons Road, follow it until you come to a T-intersection, then turn right. Immediately after turning right, you will go over a cane train line. Go straight ahead onto the new bitumen. This is Bootharh Road. Continue on this road, which will become a gravel road in about one kilometer. Then, about another two kilometers on the gravel road, follow the road to the left, (New bitumen again, but only at the corner.) You will now be on Sims Road. Immediately after you turn left, you will see a sign for Ausyfish. We are 1kl along Sims Road on the right. There is an Ausyfish Sign just inside the fence next to the driveway.
