20 kms south of Gnowangerup and 30 kms north of the Stirling Range, Kybelup Crossing Camp is located on our farm Kalynda and is found on the banks of the upper reaches of the Pallinup River at the Kybelup Crossing. We are a 90 hectare working farm, surrounded by large boardacre cropping farms. Half the farm is dedicated to cropping and open fields, with the remaining given over to regrowth and natural river bank forest. Go for bush walks on the property, birdwatching, orchid hunting, flat water canoeing in the river (conditions permitting). There is plenty of wildlife to spot, with Kangaroos and Echidnas making the river bank their home and plenty of bird life. Night spotlighting and you may see owls, kangaroos, possums and other marsupials. The Pallinup is a naturally salty river and is not palatable.
We are within easy reach of the Stirling Range and the iconic Bluff Knoll. See the mountains from the farm and know what walking conditions will be like. September to October is the peak wild flower season, but there is something flowering all year. Use the farm as a base to explore the Stirling Range and the surrounding farming district of the Gnowangerup Shire. The farm is along the Horse Power Highway where visitors can see a collection of quirky tractors – download the tractor map. Take a day trip through the Stirling Range Drive and to the Porongurups, where you can stop at wineries along the way.
Kalynda is a completely off grid property. Located up a private bush track. There is reasonable phone reception for Telstra customers only – enjoy the serenity and go off-line for a weekend. The camp site is private, within an easy stroll of the river and the house yard. Campers need to be self sufficient (including bringing their own toilet) and leave no trace. Dogs are permitted but need to be restrained. Camp fires are permitted in the open fire season in the designated fire pits. Closest shop and fuel is at Gnowangerup (20kms) with limited opening hours on weekends and public holidays.
This year Kybelup Crossing Camp is open for campers from the Anzac weekend until the end of October. We are closed over the summer and harvest period.
Optional extras include:
tank water, cut firewood.
