Camp Wambelong, Warrumbungle National Park, NSW.

Camp Wambelong.
Camp Wambelong is more of a bush camp than Camp Blackman and is usually less crowded except in peak times. It is on the banks of Wambelong Creek but there was little water in it when we were there.





The campground is opposite Split Rock Picnic Area and has good access to the Split Rock Walking Circuit.
