Information

A reasonably large, level cleared circuit, surrounded by Peppermint forest with tea-tree understory above the rushing Taponga Rv. Short grass, well shaded. A pleasant camp, not as popular as other Lower Big River sites, probably as it is not on the Big River.
Access from Elidon-Jamieson Rd opposite the road depot/camp, 100m on gravel access track. Not signed.
