Bethune Park (Free Camp)

We left Lake St Claire and headed towards Mt Field National Park, stopping off at Bronte Park General Store to grab some essentials and made lunch at the rest stop next door and filled up with water while we had the chance.

We followed the Highlands Explorer hwy down through Ouse and called into Lawrenny Distillery to do some Whisky and Gin tasting. The girl in there was extremely knowledgeable and a great representative for the company. We ended up leaving with a single malt whisky (no surprises there 😄) a pink gin and a cold pressed coffee gin!

It was too late to head to the National Park so we pulled into a free camp a couple of kilometres down the road. It had good reviews on wikicamps but unfortunately the area down near the lake was blocked off because it was too wet which meant we are up nearer the road, but there is a shelter and toilets which was a bonus as we got some light rain not long after we set up.Read more
