๐ฌ Reviews Summary
Though reviews are few (this is a wild place!), feedback typically includes:
โA real escapeโyouโll see more wombats than peopleโ
โUnmatched stars and silenceโ
โRugged access but totally worth it if youโre preparedโ
โOne of the best jump-off points for Jagungal trekkingโ
โจ This isnโt glampingโitโs raw, remote, and gloriously wild. Perfect for the lone wanderer or a rugged crew with strong boots and a love for stars.
