Information

Large, scenic and very pleasant campground with choice of shade or open sunny sites, bordering Paddys River Dam in the Bago State Forest. Very pretty alpine camp at about 1300 metres. There are two sections. The larger is grassed, has toilets and no other facilities. The smaller on the lake shore is ungrassed but has toilets, a picnic shelter, fireplaces and table.

In summer months a forest fire ban applies.

Access via Back Creek Road, off Batlow Road, or for a more adventurous drive (4WD only) take the Transmission Track from Talbingo and work your way through forest tracks and roads.
