Wellington National Park

Stayed in a quiet roadside rest area overnight called Ironstone Gully Falls, before heading inland to the Wellington National Park, with the area consisting of rolling meadows and woodland. Drove past Gnomeville, a woodland area covered with well over 50,000 gnomes (no truly accurate figure as the number increases everyday). The area was unexpected and a little bit weird....
A relaxed lunch and walk through the woods in the sunshine started the afternoon at the discovery forest area. A short drive across the park past the dam, bought us to the Potters Gorge camp area. Right by the side of the Wellington resevoir, the huge camp area in the trees is occupied by 4 cars/vans, super peaceful and serene. A short walk through the woods wondering at huge termite queens in a broken nest (they were massive and quite gross!) before beer at sunset and cooking on the free bbq's.Read more
