Located on the stunning Tumut River, where cool groves of black wattle line the riverbank, offering shade, privacy, and comfort. Here you have clear Snowy River water at your doorstep. It's so fresh we drink it! Each camping site is by the river, prime position for fishing, canoeing, and swimming. Based on availability, you are welcome to choose your spot on arrival. All options are grassed and level. You will have access to a pit toilet, otherwise, please BYO facilities. Small campfires are welcome in the fire pits provided, or BYO firepit (permitting there are no restrictions in place at the time). Firewood can be purchased at the time of booking. We're pet-friendly, so you're welcome to bring your four-legged friends along! Please note, however, that we are a working farm and as such farm activities are going on, and we have resident animals, so please keep your pets under control at all times. Also, please ensure kids are supervised at all times, particularly around the river. Lifejackets are recommended. During your time here, visit the local farm gates in Tumut, Batlow, Tumbarumba, and Adelong for their delicious high-country produce. There are also some beautiful swimming spots and walks to discover in the region, as well as good facilities in town, including the local swimming pool and shopping centre. Enjoy a local brew and bite to eat at the Tumut brewery. Bahwidgee is just 3km from the Tumut town centre - so close you could ride in, or even walk.

We loved staying at Bahwidgee. The camp sites are very peaceful by the river the Wayne is a great host. We are fully self contained which worked really well at this location. We will definitely be booking again.

Camping with cows on the riverbank
Beautifully maintained property right on the river. Very convenient being so close to Tumut but felt like we were miles away on the property, so quiet and peaceful and lots of distance between campers. The cows were a huge novelty for our children (5 & 2). The only down side was that we couldn’t swim in the river because it was running too fast and therefore had to be super vigilant with the children running around, but Tumut has a decent swimming spot to cool off. Host was lovely, highly recommend for a night or two!

So well maintained, great aspect with the river at your door. Beautiful bird life, friendly cows, spotted some trout, missed out on seeing the resident platypus. Wayne is a friendly and helpful host. 5 stars and are recommending to our friends.

We loved this special part of aussie, Wayne was super helpful snd his farm and the Tumut river was idilic. If you get time the river walk in Tumut township is well worth the effort, the township should be so proud of this amazing park.
