Last Updated Jan 2015 | Originally suggested by Russ Coit
Large shady river flats on the Swampy Plains River.
Camping area stretches from the Alpine Way down and across the river for a couple of km.
Excellent facilities- composting toilets, wheelchair friendly.
Magnificent views of the main range. Lots of kangaroos, possums and bird life. Good trout fishing.
Bring firewood. 2WD access for many sites, but if intending to cross river then 4WD only.
Plenty of swimming holes and good for a float down the river on airbeds.
