any suggestions for free campspots in victoria

Camped down near cape otway last year, permits apply sometimes, not sure when. Went down the blanket bay road and there are a number of spots off the side tracks. as for fish I speared a number of parrot fish but I'm sure soneone who has a clue about fishing may do much better.

Not sure of it's free (possibly a few dollars per night) but the Cathedarl Ranges National Park between Buxton and Taggerty used to be a beaut ( I haven't been there in a few years). Little River runs through it and I have seen Trout caught there in the cooler months.

Cheers,

Jim.

No fishing but Mt Franklin neart Daylesford is a very nice spot.

All campsites on River Murray are free

There are also free campsites in the Goldfields area. Just have to look for them.

I camped in Sherbrook Forest one night in Melbourne. Nearly got evicted but I talked the ranger out of it.

Just found there is a camping guide book in the exploroz shop.Has any one seen it?

Unlike most other states Victoria is blessed with free campsites almost everywhere.
There's about 50 just up the Buckland Valley alone. In the high country the Rooftop maps detail the main ones. Along the Murray there would be 1000 camps & the local tourist imformations have a great series of hand drawn maps showing them.
If you have an area you want to see I could point you to a particular campsite but otherwise drive up a river somewhere and if you don't like the first spot just go another 5 KM to the next one. Just avoid the long weekends. Thankfully most of our Parks & reserves are still free too :-))

Cindy,
Have you tried the "Camps Australia Wide 2" book. It shows alot of free camping spots or low priced spots.
There is a third edition coming out at the end of April 05.
Have fun,
Phil
