Information

A very pleasant site on the lower slopes of Mt Alexander.
Features an oak plantation planted 1900 (some dispersed bush camping possible) and a level, grassed area by a small creek (intermittent)), well shaded by mature furs and pines with a few Yellow and Manna Gums. Surrounding pine plantations have been cleared but are regrowing. Plentiful bird life, including kookaburras. One BBQ.
