Jardine River
« on: June 02, 2012, 08:10:09 AM »
Is anyone interested in camping at the ferry crossing instead of the old crossing?

The thought of a hot shower appeals greatly to me.

We will be camping there as my new partner would prefer a hot shower after dragging her through the bush  ;D

We will be camping at the Jardine at the Caravan Park, but with toilets and showers so each member can decide once we cross Nolans as the by pass to the Development rd is not far from the crossing.

I camped there last year and it was quite nice.  Showers and toilets were good and clean as well.

Do we have to book or can we just roll up?

I would just rock up, there is plenty of room.  We were the only ones there last year.

Sorry to disappoint, but we had an overnight fuel stop between fishing locations 2weeks ago, and the showers were cold at the jardine river, cold be hot by now?. Still a nice place for an overnight pit stop, beats doing the shovel walk after a couple of weeks on the beach.
