    Tin Can Ridge

    5 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents100 acres · Tinderry, NSW
    Bush camping on 100 acres in the Tinderry Range at about 1400 metres altitude. Seclusion and adventure all within an hour of Canberra and twenty minutes from Michelago and the Monaro highway. Big skies and dark nights for star-gazing are likely; or perhaps you'll be nestled in cloud; or hidden by falling snow. There are numerous tracks with spectacular views around the property for bush walking or mountain bike riding. The tracks are surrounded by sub-alpine flora and fauna (such as wallaby's, wombats, lyrebirds) and nearby in the Tinderry Nature Reserve. Tinderry Range is a rugged range east of the Monaro highway accessed mostly through Michelago or an hour and a half from Braidwood (when dirt roads are reasonable). The range is only around 70km away from the coast, thus enabling a sea mist to often roll over us in the late afternoon. Summer temperatures are a pleasant 6 degrees or so cooler than nearby Canberra. You may choose between a number of options for camping depending on your camping desires and set up. There are numerous tracks around our property or nearby Tinderry Nature Reserve. You may go exploring to find the springs or choose to stick to easy walking tracks that follow the contours. We will provide a map. Tracks are also great for mountain bike riding and exploring the unusual mix of sub-alpine, montane and coastal flora and fauna. There is numerous species of bird life and regular calls from lyre birds. This area has fascinating history with the largest eucalyptus distillery in Australia until the late 1950's and very popular with a number of bushrangers such as the Clarke Brothers who had numerous hideouts. No amenities. BYO camping toilet and leave no trace. Campfires (except on fire ban days or when we advise otherwise) are okay--usually recommended. Normally dry firewood is easy to find, or purchase some from us if you prefer. The exception is the bell tent glamping option,' Tin Can Ridge Glamping' which has a toilet included as well as firewood and shortly its own wood stove! Some campsites are best accessed by 4WD, or on foot. or gain access to the glamping tent with us escorting you. Camp lightly. No hunting. Do nothing illegal. Take all waste with you. Respect the land, the wildlife and people. Keep the peace. Enjoy.

    **NEW** The Tiny Pines via Goulburn

    1 site · Lodging155 acres · Goulburn, NSW
    Unplug, unwind and relax into the gorgeous Australian countryside... The Tiny Pines is a "Home away from home" Recently completed, this is a fully self sustainable, eco-friendly one bedroom tiny home. Set on the side of a scenic hill, the views are amazing, looking out over the Breadalbane Plains, ready to reignite your love for nature and the country life. This spot feels a world away but still has the convenience of being only 10 minutes off the Hume Hwy and only 20 minutes from Goulburn where you can get all your daily needs. Pine Gums is so close to everything but also feels a world away from everyone. From the time you pull in, to the time you leave, the experience at Pine Gums is peaceful, rewarding and one you will always cherish and remember. With so many people coming back time and time again, bringing friends and family, this really does speak for itself. This site was previously a pine forest and was harvested back in 2018. We are clearing some ground for grazing cattle while letting some regrowth come through for the wildlife. We have plenty of kangaroos, possums, wombats just to name a few and an abundance of birdlife. We have multiple options for campers, with Tiny Pines being our newest addition for those who want some creature comforts, or are not set up to camp but want to experience the countryside. The quaint and tastefully designed cabin has everything you need to make your stay easy and enjoyable. A comfortable double bed, fridge, freezer, toilet, hot/cold shower, linen and towels. Surrounded by nature, The Tiny Pines provides you with privacy and peace so you can soak in the tranquility. In Winter, sit around the fire and relax while reading a book or cook up a storm on the BBQ. With plenty of undercover deck area, this is the perfect place to unwind and create memories. Easy access with a ramp, this is great for all ages. Sorry, no pets. Once you book this private oasis, you have the area completely on your own. With easy access from the Hume Hwy, this really does make for the ideal getaway. 4x4 is recommended for the internal farm roads leading to the cabin in wet weather. 2WD is suitable in dry conditions.
