The High Country Camping has exceeded our expectations a hundred times over, and there’s been more than a few places that have proven this. Pulling onto Walhalla Road, I knew the region was going to be good, and when we arrived at Coopers Creek Campground, I was absolutely shocked at how beautiful it is. Where…
On the day we departed from Woods Point in the High Country, I was a bit apprehensive about what we’d find on Walhalla Road, especially as we were towing our hybrid camper trailer. I’d read that the road was OK, but you never know until you go, and after making the climb up to Matlock…
There’s more amazing free camps in the Victorian High Country than you can poke a stick at, and on a number of occasions I felt dizzy trying to find our next destination. We’d decided to leave from Jack Scotts Campground near Woods Point, and head down to Walhalla, and Merringtons Campground had a good reputation….
The Victorian High Country has some of the bets camping in Australia, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Jack Scotts Campground. After a fairly long drive from Big River State Forest, we rolled into Woods Point and were blown away by how small, unique and beautiful it is. We had two campgrounds in mind,…
After doing some fairly ambitious 4WD tracks with our Lifestyle hybrid camper behind us, we rolled into Cooks Mill Campground on the public holiday Monday, to find hordes of people still at camp. Despite this, we found a quiet spot to pull in, and decided that most people would probably leave, and we set up…
Halls Gap in the Grampians is a pretty magic town, and its got a well known walk that you can do, which takes you to an amazing little stream with a bunch of waterfalls and natural slippery slides that the kids love. Venus Baths is hugely publicised in the tourism brochures, and for good reason;…
Victoria surprised us on so many levels, and we had an absolute ball travelling from the South Australian border across to the end of the Great Ocean Road, not far from Geelong. After that though, we were a bit unsure of where to go, and when a long weekend rolled around, we decided to head…
After spending a few hours driving the Brisbane Ranges 4WD tracks, we bumped into a Parks Victoria bloke in a Ute, and had a quick chat. We told him we were going to Lerderderg campground, and he suggested we consider Amblers Crossing instead, which we were very grateful for. Local knowledge is the best knowledge,…
After a truly awesome time exploring the Great Ocean Road and surrounds, we were running low on fuel, food, water and had to get a new gas bottle, so we decided to check Anglesea out, and then head through Geelong where the fuel was cheap, and out to a campground away from the concrete jungle….
Want to see the Great Ocean Road, without paying a fortune every night to camp somewhere? Hammonds Road North might just be the place you’ve been dreaming of. The Great Otways National Park has stolen a chunk of our heart, and we’ll always look back with amazing memories. The thing is though, its incredibly busy,…
There’s some pretty amazing Great Ocean Road Camping options around, but we didn’t realise you could literally camp right above the road itself, at Jamieson Creek Campground. We found it on Wikicamps a few days prior, and decided to book three nights in to explore the attractions nearby, but turning into the campground I said…
We’re always on the lookout for amazing campgrounds and places to see, and when a handful of Victorians mentioned that Lake Elizabeth was worth a visit, we put it on the list to see. We drove in from Beauchamp Falls Campground, which was one of the slowest drives I’ve ever done, along Turtons Track, which…
