Information

Very pleasant bush camping (no facilities) in a small alpine valley. Sites well dispersed either side of the Shaws Cr bridge. Adequate shade from Snow Gums over thick, short grass and wildflowers.
Access from Tamboritha Rd 3.6k past Tamboritha Saddle, turn left (west) 400m on Kelly's Lane (narrow, gravel) to Shaws Creek. Caravans and Big Rigs probably OK as far as Shaws Cr bridge - camp on meadow just before
