River Bend Country Bush Camping has five hectares of managed and well maintained

Suggestions for weekend. There is an abundance of flora and fauna, which
for the bird watching & wildlife enthusiast makes for a rewarding stay. Any
other ideas would be welcome.
You do not need a camper trailer to attend. Members without a camper are more
than welcome to come along & get a first hand unbiased opinion of a particular
camper trailer from their owners. Come along & meet the faces behind the typing.
You are also very welcome to drop in for
the day.
Please keep in mind that the group owners will not accept any responsibility
for members & non-members actions during the weekend get together.
If you decide to attend, it is solely
at your own responsibility, including any side trips or outings during the
weekend meet.
