Our place is 187 acres of natural Snowy Mountains. There are two dams, natural ground springs and plenty of species of gumtrees. It is home to native animals big and small and many natural features and views. Close by you can enjoy the Eucumbene dam 10 minutes to the North with great Trout fishing and Jindabyne 25 minutes to the South. Kosciousko National Park is located to the West with several access points. Sitting at an elevation of 1270m above sea level it gets blanketed in snow in winter and beautiful sun in summer.This camp is 100% Snowy Mountain bliss. Back to basics will let you get in your natural element. There is no power or showers but there is a fresh water dam with a jetty. The only noises you here will be from nature! Sitting at an elevation of 1270m above sea level you have a high chance of snow in the winter and in summer it is a great base for any hiking, fishing or exploring you want to do throughout Kosciousko National Park or the Snowy Monaro. We are totally pet friendly but would like your animals to respect the native wildlife. Camp fires are allowed between April and October. Guests will have access to a flush toilet throughout their stay and bush shack which has been made from the timber on the property. There is phone service at the property with both Telstra and Optus. Just down the road is the historical Rocky Plain School (1883) that you can borrow books from at the community library.

16 ft car

High Country Camping was a basic paddock which served the purpose of needing a place to camp over night. I was disappointed that the photos on the listing were not a true representation of what actually was there. The price should be reviewed (lowered) or tidy up what is on offer to avoid disappointment for future guests.

Great spot!

32 ft pop-up camper

Perfect location for a quiet peaceful camp. Our doggos loved exploring with us and swimming in the dam! We did several day trips out to the nearby lakes and wineries/ breweries. This camp spot was a great base camp and very enjoyable for the time we spent there. Would love to come back in winter! If you come for a summer trip, be prepared for some March flies on warm, calm days.

Beautiful big bush block with lots of flat, grassy areas and ample fire wood when permitted to burn.

Tent

Beautiful location. My friend and I were the only people staying, as far as I could tell. The weather was unfortunately not on our side, however the hut beside the dam provided excellent shelter for us as it had a table and a couple of benches. The toilet on the far side was out of the way (a good thing) and clean. It was a beautiful spot to camp, we really enjoyed it.

Lots of space & Aussie animals!

18 ft pop-up camper

We loved this Hipcamp! Plenty of space, wildlife and beautiful Australian native plants. We woke each morning to sheep and kangaroos nearby. There is so much to explore and we were fascinated by the wombat burrows! It was a really quiet space to call home for a couple of days.

Lovely spot

Tent

Lovely spot. Just be sure to check wind conditions. Very exposed. Summer camping would be exceptional!
