Blue Waterholes Campground (northern section)
Campsite
You’ll need a 4WD in wet weather, and an off-road camper trailer to get to this cracking campsite. From here you can access multiple walking tracks, adventure caves, a waterfall and a spectacular lookout.Near the campsite is the historic Coolamine Homestead, built in the 1890s. With a number of preserved buildings and interpretive signs, it is well worth a look around. The walk through Clarke Gorge, which requires wading across the creek, is quite striking as it passes through a deep and sometimes narrow gorge. Take the Long Plain Rd off the Snowy Mountain Hwy, then the Blue Waterholes Trail. Note that Long Plain Rd is closed during the colder months, so be sure to check with the parks office before setting off.
