WASHPOOLS CAMPGROUND

Public BBQ

A quiet, rugged bush camp not far out of Scone, with jagged cliffs above and a clear stream running through, and enough room that it stays peaceful even when well used. Sites are sectioned off, there is a dedicated tent area, a gas barbecue and a well-maintained drop toilet, and the last few kilometres of gravel are no trouble in a 2WD. Walking trails run from camp, though the track along the creek to the wash pool has become overgrown and thick with stinging nettles. Wildlife is everywhere - wallabies, deer, wombats, possums and owls - and the frogs and birds make a racket worth waking for. March flies here are out for blood, so bring repellent. Phone reception is patchy to non-existent, which most people count as the point. Dogs are not allowed.
