Halls Gap

The caravan park has all facilities. Fees apply. One drawback is that the only fireplace was in a bar-b-que which was shared between many campers and away from the site. Plenty to do but remember to stock up on supplies before you hit Halls Gap as the cost of groceries in the local supermarket can be quite high compered with Stawell.

Jimmy Creek

South of Halls Gap is Jimmy Creek. Fees apply and are paid at the Ranger Station at Halls Gap. You can pay after the stay by visiting the station or over the internet. The other campsite worth visiting in my opinion is Mafeking which is not far from Jimmy Creek down Jimmy Creek road. I have no photos of the campsite hence I haven't posted a seperate entry.

Jimmy creek has toilet facilities and a bush shower. Mafeking has pit toilets.

Pink Lakes - Murray Sunset National Park

Park has pit toilet and water. No cost to camp but my advice is bring your own wood. Campsites have picnic table and fire pit with BBQ plate. Access to the site is by dirt road from Linga which is on the road west from Ouyan. It is signposted.
