Description
If you're looking for a spot for
unofficial bush camping, there is a clearing off of Gregory Highway that might
be perfect for you. However, it can be hard to spot, so make sure to slow down
and look for an old, dead tree on the left when heading south. Keep in mind
that there are no facilities on site, so campers must be self-sufficient.
Remember to take all of your rubbish with you and leave no trace behind. It's
important to note that there are many Dingos and wild dogs in the area, so
always stay alert and never leave food scraps outside overnight. Additionally,
there are no toilet facilities available, so if you do not have your own
toilet, make sure to bury human waste at least 100m from tracks and water
bodies. Lastly, please bury toilet paper or bag it and dispose of it in a bin
once you leave the site.
