Wannon Falls Campground - Byaduk VIC
Beautiful area,with drop toilets tank water double sided fireplace with oven under covered area beautiful walks and scenery. Situated within the Wannon Falls reserve it is a bushland setting just off the main highway. You can take your animals as long as they are kept on a lead. The Wannon Reserve is 14 klm from Hamilton heading towards Coleraine. The entrance is very noticable by the large boomerangs, one each side of the entrance. The signs state 'overnight' stay. This is believe is to stop people living there. We stayed 5 nights no problem. There were quite a few people staying 1 or 2 nights. Near the shelter, a pole used as a gate had been opened, which gives you access to camp near the shelters The turn off to go to the other falls near by is right near the Wannon entry. This is called the Nigretta. It's about6 klms drive. No camping allowed there. Lovely picnic and BBQ areas though. Even a rope for swing out over the water. Note: when going to the Nigretta, you will come to a T intersection. There are no signs. Turn left and you are right there. There is also a walk down to a lower viewing platform. Well worth a look. When in flood they both are spectacular.
Note: take a drive from the camping area down to the falls before you decide to take your young children for a walk. It is a reasonable walk down hill.
Just across the road from camping area is what used to be an oval. Very suitable for playing cricket or flying a kite.
There are places suitable for swimming at the top of the falls. Watch out for those little black blood suckers....
MOBILE PHONE COMERAGE IS VERY ERATIC. TEXTING IS BETTER.

Great place to stay if you don't want to be too far from a town but still have the bush experiance. We met lots of lovely people while staying here. The facilities were maintained daily. Easy access to viewing area, BBQ area and toilets for those that are disabled or elderly.
