If you're looking for a bit more than the usual campsite then bring the gold pans and the detectors because we are located at the base of the Mt Rawdon gold mine. Many a yarn will be told of the gold that can be found in the hills around.A fantastic place to bring the family and the 4 legged friends (on leads as this is a working property). We also have a small barbed wire paddock available for horses by request. BYO horses and yards available at RV sites only.We look forward to welcoming you to Hogback.Please note there is no mobile reception - except up the hill.No toilets. BYO amenities and leave no trace.

On the main road to Agnes Waters, a mere 30 minutes north, is my little slice of paradise. There is a total of 40 acres of bushland here which suffered a huge bushfire a couple of years ago. Now the regrowth is charging up out of the ground and threatening to take over my lifestyle!
While I am a new owner of this lovely land and trying to get a start on building a cabin to live in and starting gardens to feed myself, I offer an area to Hipcampers!
It is not much, as there is nothing here. I am living off grid and have minimal water catchment, so I cannot offer you any water or power at your site....yet (watch this space).
Guests can pitch a tent or park your camper/caravan among the native gums, wattles and grass trees in one of two large drive through sites.
At this stage there are no facilities here, so you will need to be fully self sufficient in regards to toilet, water and power.
There is a slight slope, so if you have a van, it will need levelling.
Camp fires welcome and plenty of undergrowth nearby to forage for wood.
Pets are welcome but must remain on the leash at all times. The property is not fenced from the road or neighboring properties. I also have two dogs who can be protective.
Please inform me ahead at the time of booking if you are bringing pets.
There is a seasonal creek that runs through the property about 100m away. It is a bush trek to get to it (ie: no pathways, yet). And another larger one at the very back end of the property in a gully. Should you wish to get adventurous.

We loved being surrounded by the rolling hills and amazing 360 degree views. Definitely a chilling experience. Plus the bush nursey is right beside the camp ground and its just a relaxing time to walk through. Angie and team have done an amaziing job putting this together and making it available to the public.

We took a 22” caravan and a camper truck here. Reasonably flat and power available if you request it in advance. Heaps of fruit trees all around and you are actually encouraged to go and explore. Daryl was very knowledgeable about the things he was growing and happy to share the process that he was going through. Who knew mulberries and bananas were so important!
Toilet and shower available. Pretty bush style toilet but flushing etc. Didn’t use the shower on the property but it looked fine.
Chickens, sheep and cattle to have a look at. Chickens were very friendly. All in all a peaceful getaway. Rained most of the time but that was all good. I would definitely recommend for a few nights away.
