Blowering Dam Foreshore Camping Area (Bago State Forest)
Tumut, New South Wales
Informal free camping areas along the Blowering Dam foreshore in Bago State Forest, a short drive south of Tumut and handy to Batlow picking work. Pick your own waterside spot for fishing and swimming in the reservoir; facilities are minimal, so bring water and take rubbish out. Some minor forest trails beyond the foreshore remain closed after fire and storm damage, so stick to signposted roads.
