Information

Camp. A large open, grassed area (previously farm paddocks) on the upper slopes of Mt Warby(480m). The designated camping area is open with virtually no shade and slopes with only a couple of level sites. A quiet but rather disappointing camp.

Tha Parks Victoria site suggests that Whenhams Camp is a large grassy area for camping (Walk in, Trailers, Camper Trailers, and caravans). There is a large grassy area but you can't camp there. Instead the camping area is in the day use carpark. The ground is crushed rock and almost impossible to put a standard tent peg in. Large Caravans may have trouble manoeuvring. The suggested camping arrangement can be seen in the attached images, who camps like that? That toilets were clean and didn't smell. There is little to no shade, so camping in summer could get very hot.
