We will be camped by the river. The toilet and shower block is about 1 kilometre away. Bring along your chemical toilets if you like.
Camper trailers are welcome. Note – Camping by the river is only suitable for offroad camper trailers – we will be doing a reccie at some stage before this trip to confirm location of camping and will need to know how many camper trailers we will have with us.
