From Cranebrook to Cranebrook. Burralow Swamp camp grounds.
Burralow is a beautiful picnic and camping area - so close to Sydney yet so far away. Set in a grassed open area among the scribbly gums this campground is ideally suited to families or small groups. Look out for the rare giant dragonfly on the Bulcamatta Falls convict walking track (one hour return; easy grade).
You'll need to bring drinking water and firewood with you - gathering native vegetation is strictly prohibited as it is valuable habitat for wildlife. You can buy firewood from local service stations at Richmond, North Richmond or Kurmond. Please take all garbage when you leave.
Getting there: From Kurrajong Heights, take the fire trail off Burralow Road (4WD only). From Bilpin, take the Patterson Range Fire Trail (also strictly 4WD only). Please drive carefully on the winding fire trails leading to the camping area. Burralow is roughly 90 minutes from Sydney.
Facilities: picnic tables, wood barbecues (bring your own firewood), non-flush toilets
