Greetings guys - I have been able to get a week of next month - The misses and i will also be Kid free for this week - so we want to take advantage of this and just get away.
Now that we are going to be alone - we want to see some new
places. We have a nissan Patrol 4.2 TDI and take a Jayco Flamingo Outback with us -
Places we normally Visit include
Lithgow (
Newnes )
Barrington Tops ( telegherry river ) Upper Turon River and
Stockton Beach
Now i believe that this time of year , much of Barringtons is closed - So with that said - do you guys have any suggestions where we can go ? needs to be near a river and not a "pay"
camp site - we have our own
toilet / and shower facilitys and the Pop top is Offroad
so can you guys suggest any
places or a few
places , as we would like to visit a few different
places rather than just one. Also if you have photos and GPS co-ordinates - it would be even better ( if not i can find on my oziexplorer.
i do have the new version of " Camping in Australia" by Cathy savage and Craig Lewis - but a little disappointed with it as it does not show many photos of camping sites or GPS co ordinates- and some of the
places i had visited down south ( from the book ) were very disappointing
so can you help us with your suggestions

The South Coast and Hinterland come to mind. A bit cool this time of the year though.
Places like; Bendethra.
The Big Hole. Turos Falls. All free
camp sites, and I think all are listed under "Places".

... Ok .........
Just Kind of decided maybe give
Sofala a go -- i have not been there for about 15 years , cant imagine much has changed ( or
hill end )
can anyone tell me if there is water in the rivers up there - and should we avoid -- or definitely go there at tis time of year
for the record .... we love camping in winter -- love the cold ...... hey i even choose to take my hayabusa(road bike ) to work each morning at 5 am in winter rather than the warmth of a car :)
what do you guys think ??
