Hey guys, I'm just wondering how busy is Green cape lighthouse Rd. Me and my girlfriend are planning to do a L2L walk from North down and I was wondering if there is a chance to hitchhike back to the car. Thanks for your thoughts.

It depends when you go. I used to visit Ben Boyd N.P quite a bit. It is a nice spot :-).
In off peak times you won't see many people out that way at all.

I went to Bittangabee in February a few years ago and it was almost empty. There are also a reasonable number of places for a bushwalker to camp that aren't suitable for cars.

When I used to go there it was free to car camp. Do the Mt. Imlay hike while you are in the area. It is steep! .
