Forest Camp

Forest Camp provides bush camping in our forest area. The natural Australian Bush is slightly undulating, providing great camping spots.

There are no defined camping spots, although we have labelled Areas with letters. We will rotate campsites for regeneration purposes. We manage 13 hectares of bushland dedicated to putting up a tent, there will be space away from others if that is desired.

Shower & Toilet Blocks

  • The main, centrally located toilet block includes 4 male pans, 3 female pans and 4 male showers, 3 female showers. There is 12v lighting for your convenience.
  • There is a 2 pan toilet block in Area B near the shelter.
  • We do not provide consumables like cleaning products and toilet paper. Our septics require biodegradable and non anti-bacterial soaps.

Fires

There are fire drums on stands at 4 locations around camp, wood provided. Please return the fire drums and stands to these locations. There are also ash-pits there for you to dump your ash.

There is a Camp fire circle & amphitheatre, wood provided.

If the wind is too strong ( >10km/h ) then a fire is not a good idea. The Ranger’s decision on fires is final.

Other

  • There is no 240v power. There are no powered sites.
  • Drinking water taps are located throughout.
  • A storm hut in Area B, is available for emergency situations, or generally by campers near by.

Requirements

  • Forest campers need to bring all their own gear, including toilet paper.
  • Campers are encouraged to bring their own pioneering and construction equipment and make use of the natural bush for these activities.
  • Garbage is to be taken home with you for disposal. We have a Food waste composting program; we encourage you to utilise this service. The compost bin is located behind Warnock Lodge. You will need to provide your own food waste bin, but you can empty it into our compost bin.
  • Fire drums are to be returned to the location they were taken from and the ash put into the ash pit provided.
  • Please leave the area you use as clean as you found it. You are expected to return the Camp’s equipment that you use and to clean the toilet/shower block before you go.

Warnock Lodge has been completely rebuilt in late 2020, and is nothing like the breezy shed it was.
