Nowra camping options 15-Jun-2011 At 11:23:03 PM Gavo

Hey all,

Ive not climbed outside of Vic before and am heading to Nowra next week.. I think we are hoping to stay in Nowra about a week, or maybe 2, but also doing a trip up to Sydney for bouldering and the Blue Mountains to do a few nice climbs when/if we catch the good weather... BBB is on my list.

Anyway, I have no idea about Nowra.

I know there is "Nowra" and "New Nowra".. I have no idea where these are.

And probably more importantly.. I dont know much about camping there.

We are pretty much dirtbagging it (story of my life of late... awesome) so we need to keep it cheap as possible... free is best..

Now what I do know about camping there is all I've been told..

There are 2 main places to camp.. 1 for free, 1 at Shoalhaven Ski Park/Resort..

Free one is not near climbing, in a crappy place, and apparently more likely to have car broken into

Paid one is $10 per night per site, but has amenities and is a nice place, and also they hire canoes to get across to the climbing...

This is ALL I know..

Can someone give me a bit more info? Id be really appreciative.. Im kind of in charge of this trip and Im more of a spur-of-the-moment bloke :)

Cheers,

Gav
