Bentley Plain Campground



Victoria, Australia

A beautiful, peaceful sub-alpine camp overlooking a small, marshy snow plain (spring wildflowers), backed by forested ridge tops.
Set in a forest reserve at 1,080m. Rated 4.3/5. Magpies, rosellas, wombats and wallabies are common. A 30min trail leads through a stand of tall white trunked Mountain Gum and ferns. A 2.3k (1hr) circuit leads through Mountain Gum and the snow plain. There are 3 sites: 1. North of the small creek is large Moscow Villa Hut (with beds) [My Own Summer Cottage Officially Welcomes Visitors Inside: Light Lunches Available], BBQ, table and pit toilet with one level grassed site, well shaded by Mountain Gum and one pine. South of the creek are two sites. 2. On the left is a small picnic ground, level, grassed, with 2 BBQs and tables, shaded by small Snow Gums, space for 2. 3. On the right is a small camp ground, fenced (cattle?), level (mown), with 3 BBQs and benches, a large shelter, a small hut and pit toilet, all adequately shaded by tall Snow Gums, Candlebark and Mountain Gum.
