About
Located adjacent to the Moorabool River (East Branch), this is a low key site offering picnicking and camping opportunities for those who come self-contained and who seek a tranquil setting away from the crowds.
Camping
About 200 metres back from the picnic area where a track veers off the main track, there are good campsites atop the ridge looking down to farmland and the Moorabool River.
Getting there
Access by 2WD in dry conditions is possible but not advised as the route gets rougher and pot-holed towards the end.From Ballan head south along the Geelong-Ballan Road for 11.6km, then turn right down Hamills Lane, across the Bungeeltap South Road onto the Egerton-Bungeeltap Road for 10.2km, then turn down Little Forest Road. Continue on past the farms and into Bungal State Forest. After 6.6km the road turns into Ballark Track. Continue on for 0.5km, then turn left onto Koolaroo Track and continue on for 1.6km to arrive at the site.
