I would like to take the kiddies on a
camping trip somewhere along the
Bowen River but am stumped when it comes to local knowledge regarding
camping spots. The kiddies are slowly catching the
camping bug so we don't need any facilities but would love to be near the
water. Can anyone suggest a secluded spot or two or three.....
Cheers

Hi
If you are enquiring about the
Bowen river that feeds into the Burdekin you do realise that there is SALTWATER CROCS there

My copy of the Hema road atlas shows the
Bowen River joins the Burdekin below the Burdekin Falls Dam.

Firstly There are Salties in the Burdekin dam check with parks and wild life 2nd I have seen them 3rd they have always been that far up river and were there before the dam was built 4th some years back the
Townsville Daily Bulletin had photos of them as
well
Hope this clears the air

Fair enough, and I was wrong about where the
Bowen meets the Burdekin.
I know they tell you there are saltys ther but I doubt it, then again I was wrong before
