gonebush SA
hi, we are travelling from SA and going to look around the Gippsland area, there will be hubby and myself in a poptop (on road type) and a patrol, we like fishing and just looking at new or interesting
places, hubby is not able to walk too far or strenuous.
so i'm looking for
places others have been to and can recommend, and
places to stay whether in a caravan park or free/cheap campsites or
places to avoid.
we are travelling in October this year, we have got 6 weeks to do the trip.
thanks for any information from chris

Hi gone bush, I would recomend a tour along the Princess Hwy through Sale Bairnsdale etc to
Lakes Entrance, nice caravan park at
Lake Tyrers beach on to
Buchan (good
camp ground at caves),
Omeo through
Swifts creek, over Hotham, great scenery and down to
Bright down to the King Valley, food & wine(good free camps at Edi), visit
Lake William Hovell,
Lake Cobbler.
You can explore around these areas and into the high country without the van.
It is all up to what you prefer.
Hope this helps.
Mark

My apologies for seeming to be pedantic, but I live in Gippsland & I hate the Prince's Highway being called the Princess Highway. The error has now even crept into local Rees & TV advertising.
Another place often missed is
Toorongo Falls, near Noojee, even though it is easy access.
