Good video mate. I've been up to Sofala during Covid (it was entirely shut) but not to Hill End. It looks very interesting. I love old towns with original buildings like this. We did a road trip last year and went through a town called Carcoar. That was very old and in very original condition. If you haven't visited Carcoar, I recommend it!
Thanks Brett, I’d heard of Carcoar and I’ll check it out. It’s only 52 kms from Bathurst so pretty accessible. I did a quick loop around Sofala too, I saw it was opposite the turn off to Hill End so I did a detour. The gold rush actually started in Ophir I think and I didn’t get there either so plenty to still see…😀👍🏻

Thanks Neil, another good video. I'm planning to do a trip soon to Hill End then head to Bathurst and Lithgow regions for some 4wding and camping.
Thx Jim, yeah top 4WD area out there. A lot of fun to be had..😀👍🏽
