Leskie Campground
Last Updated Jan 2014 | Originally suggested by Peter
A pleasant, forested hillside site extending down to a large, cleared river flat.
The hillside area is screened from the forestry road and well shaded by Mountain Ash, has 3 benches and the WC but all sites slope.
Rated 4/4
The level river flat clearing is surrounded by tall Mountain Ash and wattle. The grass is roughly slashed and ruts indicate it is boggy if wet. The access track to the flat is rutted.
Access to the small bubbling river may be constrained by blackberry.
This is the second of 4 camp sites up the Lock River valley.
