BARRINGTOPS NATIONAL PARK - 13 TO 14 FEBRUARY 2023

 

13 FEBRUARY

BARRINGTON TOPS NATIONAL PARK

At Gloucester, we had coffee and decided to head to Polblue Camp in Barrington Tops National Park. The drive was longer than we expected with a lot of ascent and 30 km of dirt road.

We selected a nice campsite under the trees with level ground and a fireplace.

Later, we had a hike around the Polblue Swamp. About 2.7 km on a loop track. It was an easy hike along a good track with great views over the swamp. Along the way, we saw a lot of flowers, birds and butterflies. Halfway along, we met and chatted with another travelling couple.

The rest of the afternoon was resting around the campfire while enjoying food and wine.

14 FEBRUARY

We woke to a fog shrouded morning with a very light drizzle.

We left the camp for Gloucester. The drive was 25 kilometres of steep dirt road in heavy fog. We took our time and it was fine.
