Survey Point Tolderol Game Reserve SA
Latitude -35.3750000 (35° 22′ 30″ S)
Longitude 139.1483300 (139° 8′ 54″ E)

This site is a bit obscure, and a few gates may put people off visiting the site, turn east off Dog Lake Rd to access the site. Amid a variety of ponds and channels on the edge of lake Alexandrina it has a wonderfully remote feeling about it, and the birding is pretty good, there is a lone weather-beaten table at the site. The nearest town is Langhorne Creek some 10km to the NW.

Camp rating 7 fees, no shade and little cover from any wind, but I like this spot, it has a wild visceral feeling to it
