Old Camp Campground
Last Updated Nov 2013
There are very large and separated campsites here that tend to get used for the odd enjoyable, loud gathering.
NSW state forest have even mention on their website that "This site is recommended to groups of campers who wish to have a good time without disturbing other campers and forest visitors."
There is a nice little picnic area (Dobbie Rim) nearby
There are some great swimming spots in the Allyn river nearby and plenty of grass and shade for pitching a tent or camper trailer
