Google Map doesn’t take you there, 5 Km short from the actual destination. Keep following the sign and follow the main track. If the site is full there’s another site 100 mtr from Manning River Campsite, take the track on the right instead of straight.

Great spot next to a small river, in the cooler climate of the Barrington Tops. Can get a bit busy on weekends (being a free spot). Nice spacing between the camp spots. Drop toilets. Fire pits (BYO wood). No mobile coverage. Unsealed roads in and out of the area.

We had a great time here! Spent a couple of days by the river! Sooo many different places to choose from, no toilets, showers or any facilities. About a 20 minute drive to a servo station that also do canoe hire, but a pretty pricey place for any bits and pieces you forget to bring along! Also another thing, when it starts to rain around here can get a bit boggy if you don't have a 4WD.
