COOPERNOOK FOREST CAMPING GROUND

Public BBQ

A free camping ground in the Coopernook forest, spacious and flat with plenty of room between sites, fire pits at most of them and a small wooden playground that is a real bonus if you have children along. There are drop toilets, kept relatively clean but with no paper supplied, gas barbecues in the day-use area that have not been tended lately, and plenty of picnic tables. There are no showers, no bins, and only a rainwater tank marked non-potable that has been found nearly empty, so carry water in and rubbish out; the town nearby has both. The stay limit is four weeks, so there are long-term campers, but there is space enough to keep to yourself. Bush walking runs from camp and Vincent's Lookout is fifteen minutes' drive. Flies are unusually bad. Approach from the north, as the southern road is very rough.
