King Edward River Camp

When we were up at the other two fishing camps, people constantly told how bad the road up to Mitchell Falls was, BUT you have to do it. How can you come this far and miss seeing that, etc. So we said we'd go if we could take the dog and we'd wing it and see if we could get away with it. Lucky for us the camp commandants at King Edward offered to look after Putz so we took them up on it.

We left at 7am and took 2 hours and 20 mins to drive the 77ks, and yes it was a shit of a rd, full of deep corrugations all the way up and back. When we arrived back at King Edward about 4.30 Phoebe was sitting in the little 4wd camp buggy with the camp hosts, driving around and checking that everyone had paid and all was well. We laughed seeing her sitting there like the queen of the campground. They loved, her and even came down to say goodbye to her the following day.

There's some great places to swim here, as well as a small water fall and lots of rock hopping.Read more
