About this campsite

It features an expansive gorge, extending 3.5 kilometres, that aesthetically cuts through the Napier Range's limestone. The park is a part of an ancient barrier reef system, which is also visible at Geikie Gorge and Tunnel Creek National Parks - making it a compelling destination for nature enthusiasts as well as geology and history buffs.
