Bendeela - Kangaroo Valley

WOW!!! What a beautiful free camp! We were recommended Bendeela by a couple we met at Morisset, and they were spot on. Just a 30 minute drive down the steep range from Moss Vale opens up to a huge free camping ground just before the village of Kangaroo Valley. Toilets, dump point and drinking water with regular security patrols all provided free of charge...apparently there were three thousand people here over Christmas, but not many at the moment. Stayed 3 days.

We managed to get the best spot in the place high above and overlooking the Kangaroo River. There are wombats everywhere in the afternoons and at night...just wandering through the camps feeding as they go. They get under the cars and vans and scratch their backs, which can be a little disconcerting at 3 o'clock in the morning!

Drove in and checked out the quaint little town of Kangaroo Valley and had one of the best pies and sausage rolls so far on the trip.

Beautiful weather with temperatures around 14-27°Les mer
