Broken River

Reviewed By wasmit-4 - Alice Springs, Australia

There are 8 spots available. Internet booking. Only number 5 will fit an alpine with some careful manoeuvring!! (31 ft). Would not advise caravans or big motorhome unless you were a logging truck driver in a previous life!! Platypus in the mornings and evenings. Very quiet at nights. Short walk to the river. Bring your own fire wood as it is all softwood here and not supposed to cut in a national park. fire places provided. Drive in is single lane but stable surface. Toilets walking distance. Lots of rainforest birds. Would be great for family visit but if booked out you have neighbors only 20m away. There is plenty of opportunity to take a quiet walk into the rainforest along the river and you won't be bumping into people along the way. Short walk to the fancy resort for dinner once it opens again.

Eungella National Park

Reviewed By joniquelife - Australia, null

We went up to Eungella National Park to try and get sight of a Platypus at the Broken River ???? They are so cute the way they dive for food then resurface again and repeat. We saw heaps of them, you are guaranteed to see a platypus in this location! We did the lovely Palm Grove Track which is approximately a 11 return hike and after we had a yummy burger at the cafe nearby. Such a great day out with great views and sights! “Jonique Life” Follow our journey around Australia on Facebook, Instagram, Tik Tok and YouTube as we highlight wonderful experiences and magical places you can add to your ever growing bucket list.

Goodes Lookout

Reviewed By CodyMav - Gold Coast, Australia

You will likely approach Goodes Lookout from the east amd enjoy a twisty mountain climb to Eungella, where Goodes Lookout is easy to find to the right. Not a lot of parking, but a short flat walk to the lookout and amenities nearby An excellent vista over the valley is your reward for this excursion

Eungella Dam

Reviewed By wasmit-4 - Alice Springs, Australia

We took our alpine out there twice for a week at a time each in Aug and Nov. Pretty cute drive up the range to eungella. As long as you are prepared to drive slow over the corrugations, it is worth it. They are currently grading the road and it is better than bitumen up to the crediton state forest turnoff. The grading should be finished in a couple of weeks. (The crediton state forest road is black soil and we got the bus bogged last time so get back to the eungella dam road quick if it rains if you dont have 4wd!). The dam camping is great with plenty of bird life. Toilet facilities are brand new. Heaps of bins for rubbish and we actually found a $109 camp oven in one that someone threw out!! No online booking, fill outa form and put money in a slot. Internet ok near the stump at the tiolet block. If you camp on the eastern side you will get the wind ( bloody gale on some days!!) but you get more space to yourself as most people camp down on the western/north western shore to get away from the wind. We had 4 days gale, 2 days breeze, 1 day dead calm. Plenty of little fish on the shore line and mussels for bait. Nice sized in deeper water. Great view of mountains as well. It is a pity people leave so much rubbish though so expect to see great northern bottle caps at your camp. Cheers. The Minnow
