Site description
A convenient, quiet overnight bush camp for freeway travelers in dry Box forest. No formal camping sites -
follow one of the many roads and check out tracks into the light scrub. A Permit is required for group camping
or camping more than 1 night. Camping at the picnic ground (2.7k up Reef Hills Road) is discouraged. But: (a)
Fires in fireplaces only (b) No driving off roads or tracks.
The low rolling ridges are covered with an open forest of Red Stringybark, Long -leaved and Red Box with an
understory of scattered wattles. Grey Box is common on the lower slopes, a remnant of the vegetation which
covered much of the Victorian northern plains. Most wattles flower in winter. Spring provides a wide range of
wildflowers. The red gravely soil can be dusty and the thin shade offers little relief from summer heat.
Cockatoos, Rosellas, Honeyeaters, Kangaroos, Echidnas and Sugar Gliders are common.

Site description
A large open, grassed area (previously farm paddocks) on the upper slopes of Mt Warby(480m). The
designated camping area is open with virtually no shade and slopes with only a couple of level sites. A quiet but
rather disappointing camp.
The day area is shaded (stunted Stringybark and Box) with 3 tables and BBQs. Tank water signed 'not suitable
for drinking'.
The Warby Ranges are low (2-500m), rocky and rugged (forcing the Hume Fwy to divert south). They offer good
views (utilized by the Kelly Gang). In summer they can be dry and hot. After rain creeks fall off the long eastern
escarpment as waterfalls. There are numerous tracks, lookouts, picnic areas and waterfalls. Best in spring
when wildflowers and birds are prolific. Vegetation is open or clumped Red Gums, Red Stringybark and Box.
Grass trees are unusually large (old). In spring a wide range of wildflowers becomes apparent. Although
kangaroos, snakes, rosellas, eagles are common most wildlife is nocturnal, including gliders and owls.
