Description

Bush Camping on Lake Hindmarsh. Lake Hindmarsh is a seasonal lake and can remain dry for several years between floods. This free campground offers toilets and swimming. (Note: As of 8/10/19 Unfortunately the toilets are no longer hygienic as there is no water supplying them.) Use a chemical toilet or bury human waste at least 100 metres from water bodies. There are no other facilities. Campers will need to be self-sufficient. Take all rubbish with you and leave no trace. Camp at least 20 metres from water bodies. Camp in natural clearings and avoid camping under large trees their limbs may fall without warning. Fires may be lit subject to fire regulations at all times. Fuel stoves are preferred. Fire wood may be collected only for campfires within the lake reserve and should only be dead wood from the ground. No fires/flames, (including gas or fuel stoves/lanterns in tents) may be lit on days of Total Fire Ban. Lake Hindmarsh Lake Reserve is in the Wimmera Fire Ban District. It is your responsibility to know if it is a day of Total Fire Ban. If in doubt call the Victorian Bushfire Information Line: 1800 240 667.
