There are numerous camping sites along the Blackwood River between Margaret River and Nannup.
These are generally small shaded areas by the river , with no facilities. Access tracks are usually narrow, winding, overgrown and rough, and the area is a popular 4x4 destination. However, if tackled in dry weather, most tracks are suitable for experienced 2WD if taken carefully. Recreation activities include fishing for bream, marroning (fresh water crayfish) in season ( you must obtain a license) swimming, canoeing, as well as bird watching and nature study.
For camping in this area you will have to be fully sufficient. River water can be used for showers and washing clothes/dishes etc.
We have the small mobile 4WD and the camper with us was a "Cub Spacematic Camper Trailer" towed by a small 4WD, which had no problem getting into this camp area.
For a quiet relaxing stay by the river, the Blackwood is ideal.
