Set next to Yarrunga Creek, this walk-in campground is a tranquil place to pitch your tent before you continue your multi-day hike. Grassy, quiet and surrounded by forest, you might even get lucky and have the place to yourself.
After you’ve set up camp, take the time to explore the area. As you look around, you’ll spot remnants of an old house, barn and rock wall fence. These historic relics hark back to when the Griffins family lived here, cutting timber to sell to sawmills between the 1940s and 1970s.
