See PricesSet up camp in New Country Swamp campground, and it's likely you'll have much of the place to yourself. Surrounded by towering eucalyptus trees, native scrub, and the seasonal swamp, this basic site offers seclusion and privacy. There are just enough amenities to make relaxation as easy as rolling out the tent. Perfect for self-reliant campers, it's just a five-minute walk to a scenic lookout on the edge of Mummel Gulf. On a clear day, Barrington Tops can be seen in the distance. The Snow Gum Walk (650 metres) takes you through old-growth eucalypt forest into an open woodland of Snow Gums behind the swamp, a great spot for photography. The journey here is part of the attraction too. If you're 4WD touring, approach via the Panhandle fire trail for breathtaking views across Tia Valley. An afternoon by New Country Swamp is perfect for birdwatching, with fan-tailed cuckoos, pardolotes, and yellow robins hanging around in spring and summer. The kids will love the wallabies and wombats. At night, as you sit around the campfire, boobooks and sooty owls provide a nocturnal chorus for your campfire songs.
