Ackle Bend Campground
Last Updated Dec 2014
An alternative to Horseshoe Bend Campground, right on the Wimmera River
This is also a fairly large, level campground with direct access to the river.
There are pit toilets, picnic tables and large mature trees for shade.
There is also a walk that follows the river up to Horseshoe Bend Campground. At dawn is the best time to see the abundant wildlife.
Thanks to Peter for updates to description and directions. Rated 4.2/5
