Bimbimbi is located at the free flowing, clear beginning of the Murray River, at Tintaldra. We have 5 separate sites. Each site is for a single group, so you know you will only have yourselves in close proximity. Each site has access to the river, although The Fishing Hole, River Red Gums and The Big Bend have better access than The Willows and The Old Pump Hole. Swimming, fishing for Murray Cod, hiking along the river bank (we have 3km of frontage), bird watching, relaxing are typical things to do here. Or, if you are more adventurous, borrow our canoes and do a down river trip, or go for a longer hike up Pine Mountain in the Pine Mountain National Park. Or, bring your mountain or road bikes and do some cycling on the picturesque roads and trails. The campsites are well spaced out, with a minimum of 200 metres between the nearest two locations. In fact, it either impossible or very difficult to see anyone else at the other camp sites from your own camp site. Each camp site is accessible via its own track, so you won't have other vehicles driving past your camp site. We have a Leave No Trace policy, please take all rubbish with you. (This also means not throwing bottles, cans, bottle tops, aluminium foil and other non-biodegradable items into the camp fire.) Dogs are allowed, but please keep them under control, particularly if near cattle. Campfires are allowed only in braziers provided, when fire bans are not in place. You can gather your own firewood or purchase firewood from us (see "Extras"). Please arrive before dark if you haven't been here before. It is difficult to understand a new camp site in the dark. We provide a toilet at each location, for your convenience and the cleanliness of the camp site in general. Nothing but your human deposit and toilet paper in the toilet please. No disposable wipes, nappies etc. Please put these in your trash. Also, bring your drone but use it only over locations that are not occupied. We have canoes to borrow, seasonal produce is available from the garden and our own beef and local lamb is also now available. And, again, wood for purchase if you don't want to gather your own. Please see "Extras" We are open from October to April.

River Red Gums

100%
(107)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 14 · Vehicles under 9 m
Accessible to the Murray River at its clear, free-flowing beginning, with views of Snowy Mountains. This is our piece of paradise that we love and we are happy to share it with others.  This site sits on a flat spot on the river flats, secluded behind some big River Red Gums and a few willow trees. Access to the river is easy and there is a great swimming spot, with a gravel beach gently sloping down into the river. There is a view of Pine Mountain National Park from the site. There is a short walk to some billabongs that are home to countless pelicans, cormorants, ducks, coots, swamp hens. Wombats are active in this area. This site is clothing optional. It is secluded and remote. Feel free to wear as much or as little as you like. This site is accessible only to high clearance vehicles, such as SUVs.  4WD is not necessary, but the track is bumpy.   Caravans can get there but are not recommended. We provide a drop toilet and a brazier for fires. Wood is readily available for you to collect yourself, or you can purchase wood from us (see Extras). The site is fenced off from the cattle when there are no campers and it is mowed regularly.

The Fishing Hole

99%
(100)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 30 · Vehicles under 9 m
This is our most remote site and accessed by 4WD only, except in the middle of summer when it is possible to get there in high clearance 2WD. It's peaceful, private, and offered for one group at a time. The site is flat, with easy access to the river for swimming - a big gravel beach gently sloping into the water. It is fenced off from cattle when there are no campers and is mowed regularly. The fishing here is very good (as it is across all the property), for Murray Cod and the protected Trout Cod. Caravans are not recommended as the track is tight in places. We provide a drop toilet and a brazier for fires. Firewood is plentiful. You can collect it yourself or you can purchase some from us. This site is clothing optional. It is unlikely that you will even see anyone else (except us occasionally), so feel free to wear as much or as little as you like.

The Big Bend

99%
(66)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 27 · Vehicles under 9 m
The Murray River at its clear, free-flowing beginning, with views of Snowy Mountains. This is our piece of paradise that we love and we are happy to share it with others.  The Big Bend is on a big sweeping bend in the river. It is flat and wide. The panoramic picture of our farm shows this site beside the river in the distance, if you would like a visual of the site and the open space surrounding it. We set up the Big Bend for our own use. It has great shade from the fast growing trees we planted 10 years ago and easy access to the river - for fishing, swimming, launching boats. It is our preferred swimming spot for our children who are 8 and 6. The site is fenced off from the cattle with a temporary electric fence, to ensure you have a clean camp site. The grass is mowed regularly. There is a built in BBQ. This site is one of the easiest to get to with caravans or RVs. After several naturist campers with very positive experiences, we also now recommend this site for your clothing optional camping trip.

The Old Pump Hole

100%
(50)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 20 · Vehicles under 9 m
A levelled off site sitting above the river, with great views over the river and the river flats and to the Australian Alps to the East. The river here is a great spot for fishing for Murray Cod and Trout Cod. You might also see a platypus. Because of its location, this is also our "winter camp" site. It will be open all year round, while all our other sites are closed from May to September. It is a lovely spot to sit by the fire, watch the river go past, enjoy the scenery and just relax. For swimming it is a short walk to our favorite swimming spot at the Big Bend. Or, for the more adventurous, jump in here and float down to the next bend, or beyond. . . . At present there is no shade here. We have planted shade trees throughout the site to be able to provide shade all day. We provide a brazier for fires and a drop toilet. You can collect your own firewood for free, or you can purchase firewood from us - see Extras. The site has the capacity for 3-4 caravans, or 6 tents, so there is no problem with cars or extra people.

The Willows

97%
(35)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 31 · Vehicles under 9 m
Close to the river bank under the shade of some massive willow trees. Pitch you tent on the grassy area on either Eastern (for afternoon shade) or Western (for morning shade) side of these willows. The bank here is high and access to the river for swimming is not very good. For swimming we recommend walking back upstream to The Big Bend or downstream to River Red Gums, where there are gravel beaches and easy access to the river. Fishing from the bank here is good. You have several hundred metres of accessible river that is proven to hold Murray and Trout Cod, as well as the ubiquitous carp. This site is also clothing optional. You might see a passing car in the distance - campers going to some of the other spots - but you will rarely see anyone walking along the river and you won't see any of the other camp sites.

Bimbimbi Eco-glamping & Experiences

Booked 1 time
Bell tent · Sleeps 10 · 5 bedrooms · 10 beds · 1 toilet
The glamping site is bookable for a single group of up to 10 guests, so you'll only have yourselves in close proximity. Tailored for non-campers who want a true nature experience, it provides comfy beds in bell tents that are all on grass and by the river set up around a lounge tent and a fire brazier that also serves as a BBQ. Each tent can sleep 2, in either a king bed or 2 single beds configuration, and prices are considering that you will be sharing a tent. So, the base price is for 1 or 2 adults sharing a tent; additional price per person considers that you will be sharing 2-person tents. A family tent of up to 4 guests is a possible option too. The glamping site is on the Murray River at its clear, free-flowing beginning, with views of surrounding hills. The site overlooks the river and is a short walk from a pebble bank; perfect for fishing, swimming or landing with a canoe. Photos show a mix of different campsites on the property which can be misleading; there is no shady tree on the glamping site, which is perfect for warmer mornings at mid-season. The site is fenced off from the cattle with a temporary electric fence, to ensure you have a clean grassy space.

The Fishing Hole
This campsite is by far the most amazing spot I’ve found using Hipcamp. The setup is incredible, very spacious with endless room for the dogs to run around, very private with closest neighbours hundreds of metres away, and even a toilet setup in a tent to save you bringing your own. Camp is quite literally ON the Murray River, which you get all to yourself, all while enjoying the picturesque view of the mountains across from you. We spent the entire time swimming in the river, it’s just an incredible spot. Can’t recommend enough, will definitely be back next time I make it Victoria.

A stunning part of the Murray river and great for paddle boarding , kayaking, swimming , inflatables and fishing . Felt like we had the Murray to ourselves as the groups are well separated from each other. Stars at night incredible. Thoroughly enjoyed This location, the best hip camp experience so far . A pub 10 mins down the road and iga at Corryong not too far either . Great hosts .

River Red Gums
What a beautiful spot to camp right on the river with beach access. Our family of 5 and dog had a wonderful time. The campground is very private, flat and grassy. It's right on the river with beach access. Although there were no trees for shade, we had a big tarp, so that was fine. Perfect spot to explore the river on a paddleboard or kayak. If you are into fishing, you are in for a treat. Also lots of birdlife and friendly cows. The caretakers, Hilde and Grant, were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. Excellent communication from the start. Very glad we found this Hipcamp and for Ian to share his beautiful property.

The Big Bend
We've stayed at Bimbimbi several times now. Each time we stay, we are so grateful for the peace and tranquility. We love the shade of the trees, the view of the river and the pebble beach at the Big Bend. Waking to sunrise over the Murray each morning is glorious. Our stay at Bimbimbi is a chance to switch off from everyday demands and focus on the simple things... sleeping in, walks through paddocks of cows, listening to birds, collecting water and preparing the next meal. Ian and his caretakers are always such great hosts. Welcoming and considerate but giving campers space to just enjoy some time out. We love our trips to Bimbimbi and hope to continue for years to come.

Gorgeous spot right on the Murray River. We had such a relaxing few days spotting the many varieties of birds, watching the antics of the friendly cows, and star gazing in the evenings. Thanks to the stand-in caretakers, Grant and Helga for your hospitality and making us feel welcome and comfortable.

Bimbimbi river bend is a wonderfully secluded spot on the river. Camping amongst the popler trees gave us a wonderful place to have picnics with the kids. The river flows deep enough for an adult to float with a beer down stream. While the sheltered shallows are great for kids to play in the mud with an abundance of skipping rocks Ian and his family are very welcoming with free access to and from the farm with town close by and markets on the weekends with lots of family fun. Cant wait to stay again and bring some friends as well

Another beautiful stay at Ian and Olga’s property. It is 5 years now since we found their sites on hip camp. The site is right on the river and picture perfect. Lots of birds to listen and watch and the cows are lovely to watch. Grass is kept short and pretty flat making tent set up easy. Fire and fire wood provided and a toilet is set up. Fishing, swimming, reading and daydreaming…perfect place to do some recharging and enjoy nature.
