This site is 6km south of Renmark of Twenty Third St, and a great free campsite by the Murray River, if you’re lucky you can camp right on the river bank. There is a quite a good quality wetland/bushland on the same site, so the birding is brilliant. There is one grotty toilet for site so the facilities aren’t great.

Camp rating 7 council fees apply, there are toilets
