About this campsite

Jingellic South Reserve, located in Victoria, offers visitors the experience of primitive camping along the tranquil Murray River, ideal for campers seeking solitude. Despite the absence of amenities, the site offers a peaceful environment accentuated by partial shade. Safety precautions are advised against camping under unstable tree branches. The reserve is accessible via a scenic dirt road that winds through the charming Walwa Golf Course, providing a picturesque route that leads to a river-side spot with easy access across a stone beach to the river.

It is partly shady, but of course you should be careful not to camp under a tree that may drop branches. Access to the river is level across a beach of river stones. Access is via a dirt road that passes through the Walwa Golf course.

How to Get There

Narrow dirt road for a couple of hundred metres. If coming from Jingellic direction, it is a very tight right hand turn at waypoint. Could be tricky if towing a long rig.
