Camping at Wombeyan

Camping
Wombeyan camp grounds are extensive and surprisingly busy on public holidays. The drawcard for us is the campfire which are allowed. Cut firewood is not provided, but we spent a lovely half hour collecting dried branches. Some stumps were available but we didn't have an ax or chainsaw handy.
Shower and toilet facilities are available, as well as a cooking area. There is kiosk which provides basic food items. Cabins and caravan sites are available too.
Camping permits are obtained at the visitor's office near the kiosk.
Some small tracks are available for bicycles and plenty of bushwalking or caving available.
Winter is a great time to go, with a nip in the air, the poplars turning yellow and a fire to keep you warm.
One of my families' favourite camping spots.
Wombeyan Caves Nature Paradise
Posted by debra at Monday 18 June 2007
Wombeyan Caves Camping site is fabulous for families and overseas tourists. I would suggest the relaxing way to drive there is via Goulburn and Taralga.
Where else can you pitch a tent , tow your caravan or stay in a comfotable cabin that is within two or three of hours from Sydney whilst being surrounded by Aussie native animals and birds.
The bathroom facilities are adequate and chilly in winter, especially at 2:00a.m.
Every afternoon the natives come to visit and the oval can have dozens of marsupials hopping about. The possums and other critters also come out at night. In the morning you awaken to the sound of the birds swooping low over your roof (tent caravan or cabin). Barbecue lunches also attract all the local birds hoping to grab a scrap of sausage. You will need to be mindful of this as the currawongs especially will sneak into your tent or cabin to nick whatever it can find. If you are staying at a cabin or caravan site you wil have a nice picnic table / chairs to have an outdoor bbq or picnic.
There are plenty of pleasant walks to do during the daytime. Close the the main camping ground there is an elevated grassy flat that the wallabies hang out to sunbake in . I have only seen one fat wombat in the valley , I have also seen a few of these on the drive too.
If you are unlucky enough to have rain then you can walk in the caves . There are 4 main guided tours and one self guided tour. The price for caves is extremely reasonable if you are staying at the reserve for 2 or more nights. The all inclusive multiple cave tours is less that $30 for an individual or under $70 for a family of two adults and as many kids as you have in your family .
You are allowed to have campfires in the normal camping area. THere is a huge kitchen near the campsites . There is a bunkhouse too which is a short hike to the kitchen.
The downside to some but advantage to others is there is no mobile telephone reception so you cannot get hassled by your workplace , therefore no internet mobile coverage too . If you need to make a phonecall there is a payphone near the kiosk. In most areas of the valley there is no radio cover either and definitely no television reception. If you must have televison you can easily bring your dish and locate your satellite tv provider or aurora t.v. Usually it is a great place to sit back with a glass of port and read a book listening to your ipod music.
If you camp in winter you will need to pack your warmest sleeping equipment as the night time temperature is often minus 5 degrees C.
I would not advise a trip over easter as it is way too busy and crowded. IN winter is is usually very pleasant. If you have a summer trip the cabins are not air conditioned. Please rememberto bring ALL your food with you as the nearest town is a considerable drive. The kiosk can provide long life milk and soft drinks but not the bread , eggs or steaks .
