Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2024.

Located on the stunning Tumut River, where River Red gums are scattered though out the camp,offering shade, privacy, and comfort. Here you have clear Snowy River water at your doorstep. It's so fresh we drink it! Each camping site is by the river, prime position for fishing, canoeing, and swimming. Based on availability, you are welcome to choose your spot on arrival. All options are grassed and level. You will have access to pit toilets (3) otherwise, please BYO facilities. Small campfires are welcome in the fire pits provided, or BYO firepit (permitting there are no restrictions in place at the time). Firewood can be purchased at the time of booking. We’re pet-friendly! Please note, however, that we are a working farm with ongoing activities and resident animals, including livestock and farm dogs, so all pets must be kept under control at all times. Aggressive, disruptive, or potentially dangerous dogs of any type are not allowed — especially restricted breeds (e.g. Pit Bulls, Bull Mastiffs). Only friendly dogs are permitted, and we reserve the right to ask you to leave if your dog is deemed unsafe or aggressive upon arrival. If you have any doubts, please message us prior to booking. Also, please ensure kids are supervised at all times, particularly around the river. Lifejackets are recommended. During your time here, visit the local farm gates in Tumut, Batlow, Tumbarumba, and Adelong for their delicious high-country produce. There are also some beautiful swimming spots and walks to discover in the region, as well as good facilities in town, including the local swimming pool and shopping centre. Enjoy a local brew and bite to eat at the Tumut brewery. Bahwidgee is just 3km from the Tumut town centre - so close you could ride in, or even walk.

Tent site · Sleeps 5

These sites are ideal for those with tents (including rooftop tents), swags and similar. We charge slightly less for these 'pitched' options, as find they tend to require less room than RV setups. Upon arrival, you are welcome to choose a spot along the river to set up camp, based on availability. We have 1km of river frontage at Bahwidgee, so there will be plenty of options to choose from! All options are grassy, level, and offer shade from the black wattle groves that line the river bank. Wherever you choose, you'll be in a prime position for fishing, canoeing, swimming, and just relaxing with the river views across your campfires. We permit one vehicle per booking, so if you have multiple vehicles in your group, please book multiple sites. There is one long drop toilet available, otherwise please come well-prepared with everything else you may need, including all camping and cooking equipment. We're just 3km from town should you need additional supplies. Enjoy clear Snowy River water at your tent door. It's so fresh, we drink it! Small, manageable campfires are permitted. Firewood is available to purchase at time of booking. Pets are welcome. Please keep in mind we are a working farm, with farm activities going on and resident animals, so please just keep your pets under control at all times. Aggressive, disruptive, or potentially dangerous dogs of any type are not allowed — especially restricted breeds (e.g. Pit Bulls, Bull Mastiffs). We reserve the right to ask you to leave if your dog is deemed unsafe or aggressive upon arrival. If you have any doubts, please message us prior to booking. Also, kids MUST be supervised at all times, particularly when near/in the river. We recommend life jackets when playing around the river.

This area is a private camping area, tucked away from all other campers, where you can enjoy your own exclusive space and privacy. Whether you’re after a romantic, peaceful retreat or simply want space for you and your mates to enjoy to yourselves, this is a great option. Flat, grassy and nicely shaded, overlooking a small lagoon. It’s 200 metres walk from the river, so a short wander to enjoy fishing, canoeing and swimming. There is one long drop toilet (BYO toilet paper), shared with other campers, around 150 metres walk from the site. The site can take up to 20 people, and 6 vehicles. It's not suited to caravans, but ideal for tent campers, rooftop tents and small camper trailers. Please come well-prepared with everything you may need, including all camping and cooking equipment. We're just 3km from town should you need additional supplies. Small, manageable campfires are permitted. Firewood is available to purchase at time of booking.
