Harbour City Bears' camping trip, Woof in the Woods, is back!

What's On

The days are free for you to relax and explore the local area.

Thursday night we've got a BBQ and camp movie night, with BBQ dinner supplied, and a camp movie classic, follow by drinks and chats around the fire.

Friday night make your own dinner in the shared kitchen or BBQ, or head into town to one of the local pubs. After dinner, we will have bear beats for us to enjoy, as well as other night activities that our previous attendees know and love- there's a dance area, a play area, and bears ready to go!

Saturday night, after dinner, relax with a drink around the campfire, play some games, take advantage of the crescent moon to do some stargazing, or find out exactly what it is that bears do in the woods at night.

Accommodation Options

Unpowered Camping

You can camp anywhere on the site, as near or far from other campers as you want. There's lots of areas available to camp, including some that are only accessible with a 4WD or by bushwalking.

Around the camp kitchen are plenty of spaces, but there are also some sloped areas, so if you want to be super close to the action, make sure you are ok camping on a slope. The campgrounds further afield have excellent flat areas, and lots of privacy and quiet.

Powered Camping

The camp kitchen & meeting house has a few external powerpoints available to the campsites near the building. Perfect for bears with CPAPs! Note that these are quite limited, so if you already have a battery for your CPAP, please bring it to free up a powerpoint for another bear.

King Rooms

If you're not the camping type, but still want to come along for a great weekend away, the cottage also has separate bedrooms with king beds, each with their own external access.

Bunk Beds

The cottage has a bedroom with 4 bunk beds, for those who want a little more comfort, at a lower price.

Important Information

Getting there

Crooked Corner is about 3 hours drive from the city, and is about halfway between Goulburn and Bathurst. If you're a solo traveller or a newbie, join our Facebook Messenger chat room to organise a lift!

Food
- Breakfasts for Friday, Saturday & Sunday
- Lunches for Friday and Saturday

CPAP users

If you're staying in a room, there are powerpoints available, however they aren't right next to the beds. You'll need a plugboard and extension cable for your CPAP machine.

If you're camping, there are powerpoints on the outside of the central camp building, as well as behind the rooms, and t so make sure you set your tent up nearby, and ensure you bring an extension cable long enough to run from there to your campsite.

Accessibility

The main site is reasonably accessible, it's mostly flat and has few steps. There are some slopes and hills. Further out on the property the ground can be quite uneven, with the trails connecting the sites being mini-bushwalks.
