April Camp

Our annual April camp will be at Cullendore High Country. This privately run campground is on a 4000 acre cattle property, 2000 of which is reserved for camping. See Cullendore High Country for more details.

We'll be there from Saturday to Monday morning with the option for people to stay until Anzac Day on the Tuesday.

We have booked our group into the Greygums Campground which is suitable for tents, trailers and caravans. Fire pits are provided – bring your own wood or purchase on site. Flush toilets and hot showers are available nearby. 

We are really hoping to be lucky enough to see a quoll, but there's plenty of wildlife to suit everyone.

Iron Pot Creek campground at Toonumbar National Park NSW offers a pristine creek for swimming (though it may be a wee bit cold for this), as well as World Heritage-listed rainforest nearby and abundant wildlife.

COSTS: 
The National Park self-registration station is at the entrance to the Campground. The cost is $6 per person per night so please bring the correct change for the registration envelopes.

Club fee: $2 per person for the camp needs to be paid when signing the registration book.

BRING: 
Your supply of food and water etc for your needs, few pieces of wood for the fireplace in the shelter shed, binocs, cameras, backpacks, reference books etc., repellents (ticks, mosquito & leech).

LATE ARRIVALS:
At recent camps, most of our members have arrived on the Friday but if you arrive mid-Saturday morning, please check the shelter shed for directions as to the whereabouts of the FFNC campers. In any case, we will return to camp at lunch time. 

WET WEATHER:
Anyone wanting to check on road conditions to the campground after heavy rain the day prior to their trip can contact the N.P. Rangers on a week day 7.30 – 4.30 (NSW daylight saving time) on 6632 0000 or click on the website www.nationalparks.nsw.gov.au then select Toonumbar N.P. for updates.  Toonumbar Forest Drive (up to the top of the range) does close as soon as there is any rain but this does not usually affect the road to Iron Pot Creek Campground.
