Grampians Area Camping

Appreciate the reasons why you make that comment Ray. However cleaning up the bush fire fuel is also very helpful to the park. You are allowed to collect wood at the Grampians - just no chains saws allowed.

Try the Copper Mine Track from the Mount Zero Road. Our son took us there two years ago, some fantastic bush sites and walking tracks to the old copper mine sites. We met a park ranger there at the time, he told us that "we hide the sites so as to disuade campers" but if you respect the area and leave nothing but footprints your'e welcome. Sorry, can't give you a GPS reference, some toe-rag pinched it last month.

Lake Fyans Caravan Park is not secluded but you can have a camp fire in the tent section (you can buy wood there), it is about 15 minutes from Halls Gap just off the Stawell/Halls Gap Road - great covered barbecue area, beside a lake that has trout, very scenic and well- equipped spot.

Some of the NP camping areas are nice - I liked the one on Glenelg River Road (Boreang Campground) - it would hold about a dozen camps and had a new composting toilet when we were there a couple of years ago, there was tank water and a couple of tables and I thought it was one of the nicest np camps that we came across.

I suggest you take your own wood to the np camps.

Have fun!

I checked the archives - wasn't much - Thought an update would be useful to others also.
