Richards Campground
Last Updated Sep 2017 by fauxverlocking | Originally suggested by Peter
A very attractive green camp located by the small Hill Creek.
The large grassed level camp site is surrounded and shaded by blackwoods and tree ferns and features a large hut and new facilities, backed by steep hills and Mountain Ash forest. Shelter.
The level turning circuit is separated from the camp by the creek - designed for tent camping.
Wallabies are common, birds (kookaburras, wrens, etc) plentiful.
