countryside)? Thanks in advance! Peter

Two that come to mind immediately.

The "Saw Pit" free camping ground in the national park
outside Portland, Victoria. You should be able to find it on
Google. Watch for the ants, but it can be magic in the early
morning when the Wallabies are around.

The other is the Nelson caravan park, on the Glenelg River.
There are a couple of camp-grounds there, it's the one on
the river-side. It is a commercial one, in a lovely spot and
the fishing is good off the wharf. From memory there may be
a free one upstream in the Glenelg park.

I have to disappear for a few hours, I'll try to recall some
of the others later.

Cheers, Alan, Australia

Peter

Are you after free camping or all caravan/camping parks?

If you want advice on free (or nearly free) camping spots then this website
may help: http://ozcamps.net/

For the commercial caravan parks you could check out
http://www.exploroz.com/ or
http://www.caravancampingnetwork.com.au/index.html
For Caravan park chains see
http://www.caravanning-oz.com/Tourist_Park_Chains.html

Another fairly comprehensive site where you can find caravan parks is
http://www.holidayparksvictoria.net....nparkspage.asp

If you need more information just ask.

Have fun preparing.

Gerrit - Oz
