Weekend Trip to Prossers Ridge Richmond

Very nice views all around. We saw lots of wildlife and it was very close to town.

2 nights at Semaphore Farm

Location to Port Aethur was fantastic. The rustic camp kitchen was very user friendly. Great hot shower. The long drop composting toilet was very welcome and it did not smell. Plenty of room to stretch out and enjoy this lovely farm. My dog had a ball. Marion is a marvellous host and thanks to her phone call got to see an aurora. Would highly recommend ✨️

1 night at Sunny Banks.

The site was clean and tidy. Rob takes pride in it. Rob is very friendly, but don't get ideas about going native. Bring your toilet with you. Fail to do so and you'll be shown the gate.

Camping options include non-designated sites either side of the creek under the huge black-wood trees, restricted to 4-wheel drive vehicles during winter and spring months, with a secluded site with year-round access for all vehicles. At the entrance sits the first of the designated sites, the rest are accessed via the meandering road down 300 or so meters to the camping ground entrance for the other two sites. The last 500-700 meters of Yarlington road leading to the entrance is quite steep. Some two wheel drive vehicles towing large vans have found this challenging, while others haven't. The two main camping areas now have a 'bush loo' in each site. if you wish to use these please use your own paper. Also, now for camper convenience the whole area has access to the campers' lounge and resource shelter. It contains First Aid and snake bite first aid kits. Water is available here.
