The route from Huhgenden to Porcupine gorge is just a single ashfelt road, the road that leads to the gorge is easy & can be done by a normal car although not reccomended, after that its a windy road for a couple of hundred kilometres, heading north to north east, watch out for cattle & feral pigs, the road is a bit lumpy but no deep accents or decents it goes from gravel to sand with no warnings, & takes a full 8 hours just driving, plenty of river/creek crossings so if your going on it make sure you find out about recent rain activity because the depths of some like the Clarke River & the Einsliegh rivers are deeper than they look.
There are quite a few lakes you go by too which are full of wetlands life & are beautiful like Lake Louisa.
Turn right at lat 19.314 south, 144.15 east to go to a magical lake, at 19.325 s 144.180 e turn right, then at 19.335 s 144.185 head left to a big lake, its well worth the stop, & its not far off the beaten track as it were.
All in all its a good run with plenty to see along the way.
I forgot to take my camera so no pics to show
