Burnt Bridge Campsite
Burnt Bridge Campsite
Burnt Bridge Campground sits alongside the Big River in the Lower Big River State Forest, Victoria, roughly 180 km north-east of Melbourne.
It is one of the first camping areas encountered when approaching from Jamieson along the Eildon–Jamieson Road, and is surrounded by steep, forested slopes with sites close to the river bank and pebbled shores.
The campground is free to use, with no booking system — sites are first-come, first-served. Basic facilities include long-drop toilets. Campers must bring their own drinking water and firewood. The area has no mobile phone reception.
In spring, canoeists can often be spotted running rapids on the stretch of Big River near the campground. The site is popular for fishing, bushwalking, and simply relaxing by the river, and fills quickly during school holidays and long weekends.
