Mudgee / Gulgong

You're right Frank, the council also tried to close the showground in Gulgong for camping but it is managed by a "Trust" over which they have no control.
Like you Nicole I prefer bush camping but the Gulgong showground is a good alternative.

Thanks Motherhen, I would love to know your spot, can't access your profile as am not a member yet!! Nicole

Hi Nicole

I thought you would be able to, however you can email me for the map. My information was up to date in 2011 but as Frank has said above the shire closed free campsites a year ago, I cannot guarantee that camping will still be allowed, but well worth checking it out.

Thanks Mark! Does anyone know anything about the Cudgegong River Park, not bush camping but doesnt look as caravan parky as some!! Nicole

Nicole. Half way betweenMudgee and Gulgong near the model plane (?) flying area there is a piece of public land on the river side. You will see a small metal indicator on the gate near the bridge and possibly some campers just visible from the road. This is part of public land set aside for drovers moving cattle, (can't remember what it's called) Terrific spot.

It might be a TSR ( travelling stock route ).......these are public lands, and are a good source to check out for some free camping......not sure if you could search for available ones ??

Thanks for the memory jolt Gronk, TSR is exactly what I couldn't remember.
I recently searched the 'net for TSR sites in NSW hoping to buy a Government map or the like, no such luck.

Worth having a look at this old post here about camping on Travelling Stock Routes (TSRs).

Cheers,
