West Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Ok, to keep forum a bit more alive or more entertain, i'm starting to ask/collect places that you guys go for camping, how far? Whats so good about it? Can you fish there? Lit fire? More to the wild or too comercialise....? Personally me and my mates always go camping when its' the end of the year time. After a year of hard working, parties , clubbing......ect we seek for nature's quiteness, its beauty, relaxation ( well not really when we go hiking like soldier just to see who gets to the top first ) Places that i've been to are ofcourse WILSON PROMT ( i found it to be too comercialise ), THE GRAMPIAN ( spelling ), another one which i forgot, its just cross Adel border and it has blue lake...famous for Lobsters...... Anyway, we havn't decide where to go this year yet so i start this thread up to get some ideas of everyone, start typing guys. OH and pictures too, you know some crazy photos that you took at the camp sites, with your mates.....the girls next door...funny ones, wierd ones.......

Jamezilla Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Cobrawonga State Forest on the Murray is a personal favourite. Longer drive up to Mallacoota Inlet is worth the effort too.

PurpleR32 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 personally i love to go camping on the murray. the goulburn river is also good. Have been up to yea a few times, but didnt catch much fish (probably wrong bait / gear). I love apollo bay (although i was camping at a caravan park at the time) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/91570-best-place-to-go-camping/#findComment-1653730 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamezilla Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Yeah - the Murray kicks ass. 3hrs - warm weather - sandy beaches - no-one around. I remember going up there with the girlie a few years ago. We were there for 5-days and didn't see another soul, nor wear a stitch of clothing all week Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/91570-best-place-to-go-camping/#findComment-1654322 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurpleR32 Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Yeah - the Murray kicks ass.3hrs - warm weather - sandy beaches - no-one around. So are you suggesting a possible future SAU event? I would be up for a few days camping, fishing & a quiet beer or seven Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/91570-best-place-to-go-camping/#findComment-1654353 Share on other sites More sharing options...

thommo Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 we spent a weekend up in cahuna on the murray earlier this year. took up a mates ski boat and camped in a caravan park there, did a bit of fishing and skiing, in between the occasional beverage. not quite real camping, but the river and weather was awesome.

CNR33 Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 I'll even keep my pants on. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> "I'd like to believe that this time, I really would" haha :lol: We go shooting/camping at a friends property in a place called Hay (NSW). About 5 hours from everywhere. Awesome to have a bit of a break from the big smoke. They have a bit of a saying on the drive there, it doesn't matter if you fall asleep behind the wheel, you'll run out of petrol before you hit anything...

KamikazeR33 Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 id have 2 say hay is definately a good place to go camping around easter time, not too hot then. the murrimbidgee river usually has good fish at that time of yr as for the murray its flowing at almost full capacity. lake hume here in albury is actually full for once. plenty of good places to go along the murray n even upstream of here is good for fishing/camping Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/91570-best-place-to-go-camping/#findComment-1655112 Share on other sites More sharing options...
madbung Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 (edited) If you dont mind a bit of a hike go to lake Tali Karng, it's in the alpine ranges with some really good day hikes around the lake itself... I reckon it's a top destination.clicky>>>Tali Karng google it...many pics n pages... or if you dont mind a few peeps about the wilsons prom>Mt oberon>sealers cove hikes ect r good.. but being only allowed to stay one night per camp site sucks ass.

Jetdat Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 my fav place is the Alpine National Forest just past Licola, which is a bit up from Sale... the river has fish, you can light fires with plenty of wood available and also go hiking up the mountains.. it gets VERY cold in winter, you gotto go with snow gear, snow is literally several kms up the road... best thing is it isnt that commercialised, especially in winter which happens to be my fav time for camping..

Starionturbo Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 hey Khoa A good place to go camping, I went earlier this year- was to Cape Liptrap which is reallly really far south in a desolate National park near the beach. Its so quiet and peaceful, nice beach, nice campsite which are sectioned off by heavy scrub, so you cant really see anyone else. Its about a 2 1/2 hour drive, roads are totally empty and theres a 8 km gravel track to get the campsite. Plenty of wildlife when we went, Foxes, rabbits, Wombats, Koalas (hey you wont be alone ), even maybe black panthers!!!
