Camping
Burnt Bridge Campsite is a rather large area located in the gully on the downside of the Eildon Jamieson road. It allows for larger group camping on the flats near the Big River. To the far east of the camping area there is a great view of the powerful Big River as it winds its way over and around the large river boulders.
Caravans and campervans
Some areas are suitable for small caravans.
Getting there
From Melbourne take the Maroondah Hwy, turn right to Thornton and turn onto the Goulburn Valley Highway, then right onto Eildon-Jamieson road. Follow this bitumen road to the last of the official camp sites on the left hand side of the road.
