Free camping in the south west of WA

If you don't mind camping where's there's no water views Gavin, the Dryandra forest is a nice quiet spot. We stayed there over the recent long weekend and it was very pleasant and not crowded.
Potters Gorge at Wellington Dam always get a big crowd but if you can get there during the week it's nice.
We checked Stockton but it was too busy for us and full of ski boats etc.
Didn't appear to be as much room at Wirghts Bridge as there used to be a few years ago but Grimwade as others have said is nice.
Plenty of good sites down south, just lots of others going to them as well. Try Sues Bridge or Alexander Crossing as well.
Enjoy yourselves.

Thanks Alan. He, heh, funny thing is, we actually WANT company while free camping (for security reasons). That said, we don't want it noisy and overcrowded either - that's why we are going mid-week and pre-Easter. Sounds like we wont be alone and vulnerable anyway! We were planning on stopping one night at Stockton to check it out (as it's recommended by Camps6) but we'll be there mid-week so, hopefully, no ski boats!

Is there a Camps6 reference for the Dryandra Forest camp site you mentioned?

Gavin

It's okay, I found it (237 - Dryandra). Are the roads to it sealed or at least usable by caravan?

Gavin

Click on my reply above Gavin, where Dryandra is underlined, and it'll give you driving directions etc.
That will save me going out to the car and looking it up for you.....I'm feeling lazy today after a weekend being eaten by mozzies at Belvidere over on the coast just north of Bunbury.
Good luck.

Not all sealed but in good condition. We took our small van in and others had larger vans and had no difficulty.
It's a nice spot with a commentary on a drive round the area which you listen to on 100fm.
No honesty box and no ranger collecting fees but our club insisted on paying up!!!!!
