Survey Point Morgan Vale Claypan Danggali SA
Latitude -33.2236100 (33° 13′ 25″ S)
Longitude 140.5633300 (140° 33′ 48″ E)

This site is just off the main track through Danggali at the northern end, the track to the ruins of the old homestead is closed, but it’s only a short walk. When this body has water in it the site is amazing. The woodland surrounds are good quality, but not as good as further into the park, the upside of that is that there are some more open country birds here than further into the park. 4WD is recommended on the main track.

No camping is allowed here
