Hogback is a 2000 acre nature refuge and run as a cattle operation, emphasis in sustainability, in native forest. This property is the perfect getaway, and a photographers dream, you can do as little or as much as you like. The seasonal creek draws the wildlife to the area making this a birdwatchers paradise, sit back and watch the wedgetail eagles soar as the red-tailed black cockatoos serenade the afternoon away. This unique property has inland and coastal fall making it home to several ecosystems, including the semi-permanent waterfall. If you're looking for a bit more than the usual campsite then bring the gold pans and the detectors because we are located at the base of the Mt Rawdon gold mine. Many a yarn will be told of the gold that can be found in the hills around. A fantastic place to bring the family and the 4 legged friends (on leads as this is a working property). We also have a small barbed wire paddock available for horses by request. BYO horses and yards available at RV sites only. We look forward to welcoming you to Hogback. Please note there is no mobile reception - except up the hill. No toilets. BYO amenities and leave no trace.

This was my second stay at Hogback. Great place to get away from it all. Tranquil creek, beautiful scenery, abundant wildlife.

Great secluded spot for off grid camping, great property for rugged terrain hiking, relaxing by the creek or both. Wonderful host.

Hog back Creek Camp
Hog back creek camping was a beautiful tranquil spot that offered a lot of relaxation as all you had to do was sit by the fire and watch the bubbling Brooke run by…, no phone service which is perfect for a weekend away. Plenty of firewood and shade from the trees on the camp and enough room for three groups of campers in your party. Keep your rubbish out of reach of the visiting farm dogs at night or you will need to clean up the mess they leave. Another note is the google maps says you have arrived about 5k short and you need to take the low road (watercress road) when you get to a Y junction (don’t go right, stay left) and keep going even though it looks a bit sketchy… you will get to a gate that has a Hipcamp sing and HogBack…. Only need to go another 2?k from there to meet up with your host who is lovely…. We will be back!

A great insight into the challenges faced on a working cattle property in rugged country. Plentiful wildlife if you explore and look hard. The interaction with the horses and dogs will put a smile on your face. The real deal with great hosts Blodwen & Col that everyone should experience.
