Escape The Daily

Tackling a grade 4 and 5 hike with three kids aged four to ten was a mission and honestly Weano Gorge just wasn’t worth the effort. If you’re tight on time I’d skip it completely because Kermit and Hancock are miles better and easily our favourite spots from the whole trip.
Make sure you pack a waterproof bag, towels, warm jumpers if your kiddos feel the cold like ours do, and a first aid and snake bite kit.

📌 Buddhas Overnighter Campground

I know I’m starting to sound like a broken record, but the rule stays the same for every one of these spots… drive in! Don’t pull up at the first empty site you see. Keep going all the way through, find your fave, then backtrack. The spots near the entrance are always packed in tight, but once you venture further in there are heaps of camps well away from everyone.

This one’s also super close to the Spa Pool, so if that’s on your list, stay here for the night and head to the pool first thing in the morning before the crowds roll in.
