I have booked just for myself the nights 24 th, 25 th and 26th of March, 2023, Friday to Sunday niight inclusive. Feel free to come for a day , a night or the three nights or more.

Suited to vans, trailers and tents. No power but toilets and BBQ areas. Need water and firewood.

Also need to book. Fiarly remote ..probably no phone services and nearest town about 35 minutes away.

Access is via tarred then well maintained dirt road. About 6 fords of streams. Excellent spot amongst trees, grass and running mountain stream.

(Gloucester River CG-Barrington Tops NP )
Thanks for organizing.
Looking forward to meeting up with some of the treggers from the previous 3 musters we have been on and meeting new friends.

Any objection to me asking a relative who has just got a new Jayco RV to join us on their first outing in the van?

As for you mate..I reckon it will be fine. I might have one in a separate van. Will put aside a feww spots for vagrants.

 

[bruceallen]

Anybody coming please tell us if you need special consideration…ie close to facilities etc so we can have a civilized gathering.. not quite first in first served.

Should be fine. Saw a number of vans there when I did a reconnoitre. Fords or water crossings are quite civilized.
Dont tow anything myself….cant reverse to save my life…or at least it took me about 3 goes with onlookers giving me wide berth.

Herewith some possible drive from the campground for those interested. Mostly cruising, some dirt roads.




Ladies Well.

Gloucester Tops to Ladies Wells - Google My Maps
Myall Lakes.

Gloucester Tops to Myall Lakes - Google My Maps

Ladies Wells probably only 4.5 hours return Mostly tarred roads but some feel offroad cause of potholes..Stroud to Dungog!
Looks like nice lttle lunch spot.

Myall Lakes. Excellen trip. Have done a lot of of this on ebike. Glen Road is the only unknown..but can work around it using Waukivory Road from Gloucester. Longer trip. Lakes are good. Could do beach driving for those who want to. Those who dont can just park and hitcha lift with those who are ok.
For those who want to do nothing campground is an excellent spot to do this.

You can just take a trip up the mountain on well graded dirt roads..One way return.

Original trip planned to Scone was 8 hours. No time for sightseeing.
Hope links work

Hi Team, been a while since I've posted!
We have booked 24th through 27th aswell (2 adults and 2 kids) - camper trailer in tow.
My wife and I grew up in the Manning valley area originally but funnily enough never camped in this part of the Barrington Tops NP as I always avoided it due to all the tourists! So this should be fun!
Also encouraging my folks who live near to Wingham to come out for a time. They have just purchased a 7L R5 TDI.
And I've asked my cousin to come along - they live in Wauchope but frequently camp around Gloucester, they dont have a Treg but they do have a Skoda Yeti.
