Camp at
Junction Pools Campground, Barrington Tops National Park, NSW, Australia
View Original Description
Nothing justifies owning a 4WD more than a secluded campsite where smaller cars can’t get to. Take the Barrington 4WD trail above and you’ll be privileged to experience some stunning sub-alpine wetland that has barely changed since the last ice-age. Epic.
During the day you can explore the surrounding mountain streams and find the perfect place for a dip or a spot of trout fishing. This is high country living.
If you yearn to camp under the stars and enjoy a remote wilderness experience, load up the 4WD and head to Junction Pools campground. High in the pristine wilderness of the plateau country within Barrington Tops National Park, between Scone and Gloucester, you’ll experience the unique landscape of sub-alpine wetlands that hark back to the last ice age.
While this remote region houses many unique species, you’re more likely to see eastern grey kangaroos, wombats, and swamp wallabies grazing the grasslands and open forests of the plateau country. Swim the cool, clear mountain streams, try your hand at trout fishing or hike along the Aeroplane Hill walking track. When night settles in, cook up the catch of the day over a campfire and soak up the sounds of the bush.
