JB Plain Hut Campground, Dinner Plain by CAMPS AUSTRALIA WIDE
Camping

Free camp at JB Plain Hut in the Victorian High Country

JB Plain Hut is the first hut you will come across from Dinner Plain, only 1.8 km towards Hotham Alpine Village in Victoria High Country. Surprisingly, there were several RVs at the carpark entrance on the Great Alpine Road – and at least 4 tents around the hut and my favourite snow gums. One skier set up right on the edge of the plain. A beautiful spot! It is a walk-in site for tent camping – with a drop toilet. The two room hut is pretty rustic inside and out – there is a fireplace, the hut is only for

We were also thrilled to have made it to Victoria at all – thankfully before the lockdowns. This parking area

Time to support Mallacoota, Victoria

Mallacoota Victoria – Image by Michelle Thorn Like other towns ravaged by bushfires, Mallacoota in Victoria has done it tough. The fires in East Gippsland were followed by a COVID lockdown – a double blow for business in this tourism town.   Michelle Thorn visited Mallacoota Foreshore Holiday Park, and said, “Mallacoota is one of those places where there is so much to do and see that five days wasn’t nearly enough time. The park itself is amazing, clean and tidy facilities, sites across from the water where you can moor your boat are super handy and the whole park has
