    Apsley Falls Campground

    27 dicembre 2022, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

    Short overnighter at this small intimate campsite used as a half way stop between Swansea & Mt Kaputar.
    Got in late arvo & set up easy peasy... had a bite to eat, a coupla beers around the campfire which was awesome!! & even better that they provided the wood 😉
    Started getting cold, so we called it a night.
    Woke up to the birds & heavy fog.. so Jimmy lit a morning fire that warmed us up.. with a cuppa ready to go.
    Early morning walk to Apsley Falls.. Nice easy, paved trail & a decent drop of a waterfall as the highlight.
    Packed up here & set off towards Tamworth heading to our next destination - Mt Kaputar

  • Mt Kaputar Day 1

    28 dicembre 2022, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C

    Bit of a mission to get to Dawson Springs camping area.. 5km of gravel roads, then a very narrow windy road to reach the top at 1500m asl.
    Quick little meander around Dawson Springs Nature Trail & then sorted dinner.. it was super warm so we didn't even consider a fire.. lucky, because there's a full fire ban atm 🤦🏻‍♀️
    Had a bit of an issue with the kangaroos at dusk.. they have obviously been fed by campers & come in to be fed. They came up sp close that James had to pull alpha male rank 😂
    Settled down & had a good nights sleep in the van & a bit of a sleep in the next morning
