Latitude -17.4716700 (17° 28′ 18″ S)
Longitude 141.1800000 (141° 10′ 48″ E)

This site is at a designated free campsite on the main road between Normanton and Karumba. It is very popular so difficult to get a spot by the creek. The creekline is well vegetated but the water level can get very low.

Camp rating 8 On the NE of the site, there are no facilities here and quite close to the road, but little overnight traffic
