Description of Big Bend
GPS reading will give some indication to the turn off. (You could use the Old Loxton Road turn off below) The turn off at the Walkers Flat End is not sign posted. The drive in gives the impression that you may be on private property. The turn off at the northern end to the
camping area is about 4km. (Opposite this TO is the Old Loxton Road.
The
camping spots here are not to bad. There are no facilities and not a lot of privacy.
