    Abercrombie River National Park

    Hi Guys,

    i just spent the last 5 nights camped at the Abercrombie River National Park. Its a tiny national park located about an hour north of Goulburn and was very basic but i had an amazing time, there was bugger all other people camped out there so we (my group of 7 people) had a massive campground all to ourselves.

    ARNP is a 4wd only accesible park, ther are alot of steep hill climbs/descents and a few very small river crossings. we went out to do only a little 4wding and mainly wanted R&R.

    Went for a walk along the creek we camped on and up a few ridges, attemped a few silly hill climbs(didnt make it) and checked out the sights from the high peaks around the area. saw HEAPS of wildlife, mainly redneck wallabies, eastern greys and a few possums, but also saw a falcon, a few eagles and a tawny frogmouth. the owl was spectacular. we were hoping to see a wombat ar two and platypus as they have been spotted in the area but didnt get that luxury. unfortunately we also did see about a dozen feral pigs, man they do alot of damage to the land.

    Looks fantastic.
    In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.

    Looks like a great spot and always better not having neighbours while camping.
