9 - HERMIT'S CIRCLE
Keep coming back
This was my 2nd camping trip to the Monestary of 11 strings & was just as enjoyable as my first trip.
I explored a lot more on this trip.
Hiking down to the river getting a fire going, enjoying lunch & a coffee while watching the river flowing past was a highlight.
I met Victoria on the way to the river at the Magic Bus. We had a great chat over tea, & probably would have talked till nightfall if we did not have other places to be that day.
I absolutely loved the river & will be back again to do backpacking & camp along the river for a few days (or more).
Probably will be for more as so much to explore, & simply enjoy the serene bush environment.

3 - BUDDHA TREE VIEW
Had a great time camping at Monastery of 11 Strings. We ended up staying at site #1 (rainbow tree) as there was some flooding on the road to site #3 (buddha tree view).
Victoria was a great host - very communicative, and we would happily stay here again. We met on our hike down to the creek and it was nice to have a chat. You can tell she's very passionate about caring for the land and giving guests a great experience.
There are unsealed roads on the way in but we managed in a very fully packed Honda Jazz, even during a particularly rainy period of May. Not easy, but manageable.
The hike down to the creek and back was a bit challenging but a nice walk, lots of changes in climate and scenery, and the creek itself was beautiful, lots of water flowing with the all the rain. Recovering bushland is a nice sight to see after the bushfires in 2018.
Overall, a great trip not too far from Sydney.

1 - RAINBOW TREE
I loved it - unfortunately had to leave early because of the weather and my little Kia rio would have made it out of the dirt road alive. Will definitely be making the most of this little gem in the drier months.

Was such an amazing stay so peaceful and surrounded by beautiful wildlife. Our doggies loved the stay and swimming down at the dam. Would definitely recommend wish we stayed longer .

2 - BRUMBIES NOOK
10/10 would do again
Victoria's land was absolutely beautiful! The sites were close enough to walk between but provided plenty of privacy which was amazing! We went down in a lancer 2WD but I'd heavily suggest taking a 4WD as some areas in the dirt road were ticky to navigate!
