Don’t follow GPS. Came via Tabulam. Fairly long drive in, best to stay for more than one night. Magnificent valley with river running through it. A natural amphitheatre. River had some flow to it so was not real inviting to swim (I’m fussy) Still lovely to watch all day long. We camped under the sheoak’s on the River Flats just magnificent summer shade! Silky Oak and Cascades also looked nice for summer shade. I’d take Kookaburra in the cooler months. Beautiful campgrounds, well maintained, with lovely soft grass many varieties of ants but no mozzies. Appreciated the loo and shower was available. Love that they supply $ ice and or wood if you need it. Clarence River Wilderness Lodge is a lovely wilderness experience worth making the trip to! Thanks for having us

We stayed at Silky Oakes camp area, we only had one night due to trip but will visit again, amenities are good, had a great chat with Sharon who made us feel welcome and gave us all the info. Was a bit wet heading in, took it steady, but had no issues with the track.
