Just wondering if there's anywhere in or around Rhynie in SA that's great for putting up the camper trailer. But, we're looking for somewhere that we can have a campfire (fire restrictions have been lifted), there's no power or facilities - we want to rough it. If the kids cope, we'll do it more often and for more than one night.
Cheers

What about Burra Gorge, its not to far from Clare?
Burra Gorge - get in early if your going over easter, we were there for the long weekend in March, Adelaide cup weekend, counted 47 vehicles, ie around about 30 groups, vans tents, camp trailers etc etc,
bring your own firewood tho
cheers

Just had a look perfect!. Do we need to book with the property owners for a small fee or is it just arrive and relax?
Its a free camp area. Enjoy.

Yep just roll up, The Clare Valley is a great part of Oz with many places close by. I have even camped up out the back of Clare at a State Park I think it was I couldn't tell you the name but I could guide you there..... That was over an Easter weekend and there was only one other camp there.

Burra Creek Gorge is a great spot but it does get very crowded during holidays and long weekends, Bundaleer and Wirrabara Forests are great camping spots also, but No fires of any sort are permitted to be lit by members of the public on ForestrySA land, including all Forest Reserves between November 1st and April 30th in any year. :'(

Hey Bubba, I was at Crawford the other day and they have ended the fire ban early and allowing fires from the first.

Maybe they have shortened it due to all the recent rain and everything being green again ???
