Germein Gorge SA

Survey Point Germein Gorge SA
Latitude -32.9852800 (32° 59′ 7″ S)
Longitude 138.0811100 (138° 4′ 52″ E)

About 7km east of the Princes Hwy along the Port Germein Rd. Telowie Rd marks the spot to turn down a short way to a flat area. This is a ratty unattractive looking site, but walking the road east into the gorge and immediate area around the flat will produce a few nice bush birds. There are no facilities at this free campsite on Back Ck.

Camp rating 7 There are no facilities here and it looks a bit ratty, at least it’s free and quiet at night.
