Caravans and campervans
A number of small camping spots surrounded by native forest. Located on a bend of the Buckland River with small water holes. This site is suitable for camper trailers and small high clearance caravans.
Getting there
From Porepunkah, head south at the large round-about onto the Buckland Valley Road for approximately 36 km, where the camping area is located on the left. The Buckland Valley Road is sealed for the first 13km to Buckland Bridge and then unsealed for the remainder. The unsealed section is suitable for two wheel drive access throughout the year, however access to the site requires a high clearance vehicle and may be slippery in wet weather.
