1 August 2006 – Yarrangobilly Village Camping Area – Snowy Mountains – Mt. Kosciuszko National Park

1 August 2006 – Yarrangobilly Village Camping Area – Snowy Mountains – Mt. Kosciuszko National Park – 64k South Of Tumut, NSW. This large camping & picnic area beside the Yarrongobilly River, is a great place to stay. Just below the snow line, temperatures at night are about zero and top about 5 during the day. A short drive (14k) up the hill will take you to Yarrongobilly Caves where a thermal pool awaits the adventurous. By this time you should be above the snow line and be able to see the vast open plains near the mountains. (Mt. Selwyn ski fields are only 37k from the camping area and plenty of parking is available. See Mt Selwyn photos for further details.) Tables & toilets are provided and it is recommended to bring your own wood as most of the local wood is very wet. Yarrongobilly village consists of one house with a shed (unoccupied) and is home for many of the rabbits that inhabit the area. If you can manage it, we recommend this place either in summer or winter for a base.
