LONG WEEKEND CAMPOUT – Hallelujah Hills 140 km

29 September, 20233 October, 2023

CAMPOUT: Birds SA

EXCURSION TERRAIN DIFFICULTY: EasyModerate
Please note: Our campground access will be from Friday morning 29 September until Tuesday afternoon 3 October. Hallelujah Hills is one of two Heritage Agreement properties owned by Worlds End Conservation Pty Ltd between Roberstown and Burra in the Mid North. We have been granted access through AliBen Kahn, a member of Worlds End Conservation Pty Ltd.

To get there from Robertstown, head north (towards Burra) on Worlds End Highway for approximately 12 km. Turn left into Gregurke Road, a dirt road on the left just before some buildings, and continue for approx 4 km until the road makes a sharp turn to the left. The entrance to the camping area is on the right just before the turn, and is signed. Follow the track for approx 500m to the camping area near the shed. DO NOT drive into the central area where there is a rain gauge and regenerating native grasses. All camping and vehicles are restricted to the left of the track and in the cleared areas near the shed. The property is 414 hectares in area between Gregurke Road and Hallelujah Hills Road. The campout area is off Gregurke Road through a locked gate and this will be opened on Friday morning. During the weekend we can also visit Read Creek Hills, which backs onto Hopkins Creek Conservation Park. As Red Banks Conservation Park is nearby we plan to have an outing there too.

Campout Facilities: Members will need to be self-sufficient, including all water and food, including firewood. Bring a bag of firewood for your camp fire.A porta-loo will be available. No shower or kitchen facilities are available. Our official campout activities will be from 8.30am on Saturday 30 September to 1.00pm Tuesday 3 October. We will need to be off the property by 3.00pm on Tuesday. Participants will be asked to pay a $40 per vehicle fee (covering one or more days) at registration or when you arrive.
