Amazing Campsite, Great Host!
I set out in a Honda Jazz and was very impressed with how easy the site was to access. Most of the roads leading to the site are sealed with only the last few kilometres being dirt road.
The sites were easy to set up camp on, spacious and were well shaded by the canopy of the rainforest. We stayed on site 4 which was closest to the toilet, but one of the furthest from the river entrance near site 2.
The river was lovely, but a touch chilly in October. The water was clean and full of fish, tadpoles and turtles. Arne supplied tubes and paddles which was great for getting some sun in the arvo.
Arne was an incredible host, stopping for a chat every day and to check on our firewood supplies ($10 for a very generous bag). We ended up doing some site shuffling with some of the other people from our group and he was more than accommodating with us.
On one of the days of our trip, we went to see Battery falls. The Jazz was able to make the 15-minute drive quite easily, with a small assist needed to cross one water redirector. Arne shared a pin for us to a spot we could park and hike about 300m to the top of the waterfall. The hike was steep, but manageable and the waterfall was amazing to swim under, once you scaled the rocks to the base.
When we went looking for wildlife, we had the opportunity of seeing many species, including the Giant Barred Frog, Long-nosed Bandicoot, Black Snakes, Skinks, and Quails.
Overall I rate Frog Hollow on Bobo River a must-do for your next camp
