Set in a narrow forested valley, the campground features level sites on red gravel and grass beneath peppermint, white sallee and mountain gum. The understory of saplings and wattles provides reasonable shade. Basic facilities include toilets. Wildlife such as wrens, tree creepers, crows and wallabies are commonly observed. Dogs are permitted. This free first-come, first-served camping area suits budget travellers seeking a bush setting.
