River Road Reserve Campground
Last Updated Feb 2014 | Originally suggested by Peter
Pleasant bush camping overlooking the Ovens River, well shaded by Manna Gum and wattle.
A large reserve but there are only 2 dispersed sites, each with a BBQ, both visually secluded from the road by trees and distance, although there is some traffic noise.
Rated 4/5
Much of the reserve away from the river has been cleared, is covered by long grass and exposed to the road.
Handy to wineries & cheesery
