Yes, camping on the Murray River is really nice and the bird life and watching the river flow past, is a very relaxing way to pass the day away. Thanks for your feedback. Cheers Tim.

Thanks for sharing Tim, great video, love these cooking camping vlogs, the only thing you keep forgetting is to put pure butter on your Turkish bread before the bacon and eggs. Pure Butter is so nutritious and adds an extra dimension in taste.
Gday mate, I’ll look into pure butter on the next breakfast cook up mate. That’s a great spot on the Murray River. Thanks mate for your reply. Cheers Tim
@@timbates4wdadventures I noticed there's a few more subtle camera and editing techniques uses (or I possibly haven't noticed them before). Like when your walking along the river and the POV shots. Small details but it really makes it that bit more immersive.
Another great video here Tim. The Murray is big but l did get very familiar with the section in Tocumwal. I lived in a caravan park there for 3 years and it was the most incredibly peaceful and beautiful 3 years of my life. The only thing l could have asked for was to have met a partner there so l could have shared the experience with her. It is an amazing experience to wake up day after day without any worries or concerns. Whenever l need to slow down and relax l always have this experience to fall back on as a reminder of how life can be. Thank you Tim for sharing with us. Jason in lockdown Victoria.
Gday Jason, Yeah with everything that’s going on in our world. A trip like this was just what was needed. So much to see along the Murray, I’ll be back that way for sure some day. You take care mate in lock down. Hope it is over soon. Cheers Tim.
Thank you for taking us on your murray journey!!! The murray River and the landscape is heaven, I really enjoy your video and a big fan!!! Your a true Aussie legend stay safe!!!👍👍👍
Gday Judas, No worries at all mate. It really was a great spot to camp. Episode 2 next Monday night is another great spot on the Murray River. I greatly appreciate your feedback mate. Cheers Tim.
Hi Tim my name is Tony n I'm from tassie every time I go to main land I camp just outside Echuca on the Goulburn, Murray, love it so peaceful, and you need to try some places down here too mate, cheers.
G'day Tony, Up around Echuca is really nice with both camping on the rivers. Very peaceful times, thats for sure. Thanks mate for dropping in from Tassie. I will get back over to Tassie some day. I appreciate your feedback. Cheers Tim
I've spent that many nights up the Murray mate, geez, lost count. Normally off the Picola Gulf track stopping off in Nathalia on the way for a pie and coffee. I'm 35 minutes away from door to shore. Been up there in Robinvale many times, last time the heavens opened and set in for 13 hours of heavy rain, I had to decamp and take the handbrake and adventure to Willow Bend Camp Ground over the border there in Wentworth, took a cheap cabin as the swags did not cut it in those winds and rain lol. You made a cracking chill to the max video with this one cobber. No better spot. Food was ace also. cheers mate.
G'day Moose, Sounds like you had full on weather during your camping trip on the Murray. Good thing it all turned out well for you mate. Thanks a lot mate, i appreciate your feedback. Great spot thats for sure. Cheers Tim
Gday Mitch Mate, that was a top spot to camp for a few days on the Murray River. Hope you try out solo camping some day. Thanks mate for your feedback. Cheers Tim
Another cracking adventure. Maybe you should sell those pies, how about Baties Trucking Good Pies...... l have spent a bit of time on the Murray, great spot. Just a friendly tip be very careful camping under Red Gums they have a habit of dropping limbs. That big one where you had your frothy has fresh bark tear a sign of limb drop. l and many others would hate to lose you, where would we get our solo camping/4WD fix.... Thanks again for all your hard work, it shows in the quality of your productions. BIG fan of the timelapses!! Cheers Dave
G'day Dave, Hahah Lol the pies are gold mate. Not sure about selling them Lol Thanks heaps for your tips and thoughts on the tree branches dropping. Same with the High Country, they can drop at anytime. I did have a look up at that spot, but flat dry ground was pretty limited. I greatly appreciate your feedback mate. Cheers Tim
Yeah it sure is mate. Really nice camping along the Murray River. Down along the coast would be nice also. You would of had nice weather for it. Thanks for your reply mate. Cheers Tim.
Mate I am jealous👍🍻👍 I have been planning another trip up to the big river solo camping too. Nothing better than solo camping along the mighty Murray, campfires,reading a book with bird noise in the background
Another great video Batesy. Being locked down in Melbourne your video is an excellent reminder as to what we will experience when we are allowed to get out and about again. Keep up the great work. Cheers Steve.

Thanks Mate, very relaxing, great video once again Batesy. I spend a lot of time on the Murray living in North East Victoria, the Cockies allways get me out of the swag without fail. Safe travels Mate.
Another great video mate. Something different. I spent a lot of time around Horsham when I was younger. Similar sort of country. Must check out the Murray River one day. Love the music you use in your videos.
You & I are of similar creed Timmy. River, campfire, swag, simple food, "sensational". Camped very close to there a couple of months ago. Might not be paradise, but you can see it from there. PS we differ on eggs (egg rings , soft), bacon (streaky), tommy sauce a must.
G'day Mark, Yeah mate, simple setup and simple cookups. Just the best. Lol Yeah we are different on the cooking, but both options taste amazing on the campfire. Thanks for your feedback mate. Cheers Tim
Plenty of eagles up there I hear Tim mate. Beautiful. It’s an awesome river that Murray. Our Murray River here in WA is far less large, but still stunning. Ours is only 130 odd ks long, a far cry from 2500 haha.
Gday mate, Yeah I had two sea eagles nesting just across the river from my camp. To far away to show on camera. Great watching them though. The Murray is so nice mate, the next trip is in the planning. Thanks mate for your reply. Cheers Tim.
It does help mate being in Regional. But this was filmed a week or so ago when the whole of Victoria came out of lock down. Then back in again. Take care mate. Cheers Tim
g'day Tim,looking forward to our sydney lockdown finishing so i can do some more camping myself,,, the quiet silence there was deafening !!!! sydney dave
G'day Dave, Mate i really hope Sydney can get on top of the current situation. Really feeling for you all mate. Stay safe and hopefully we can all get back out soon. Take care mate. Cheers Tim
G'day Chris, Take care mate and stay safe. Thinking of all you guys in lock down. I really hope its over soon and we can all travel again. Thanks for your feedback mate. Cheers Tim
Love the slow motion on the cooking 😄 I was salivating for at least 50 percent of the video. Beautiful spot and nicely filmed. What a life! ...well done Tim.
Takes me back to when the kids were young (20 years ago, lol). We had a couple of weeks almost exactly where you are, every Christmas for 5 years until we headed north to Qld. The kids still talk about it If COVID ever finishes I am going up there for a holiday now I am back in gods country, Victoria Thanks for reminding me
Gday Neil, Mate that sounds like great family memories. Seeing it 20yrs ago would have been amazing. I hope lock downs end soon mate for everyone to get back out again. Take care mate and thanks for your reply. Cheers Tim.
G'day Tim, l have slipped down to the Murray each year for yonks to fish 🎏🎏 near Mildura and l think it's one of the magical spots in Australia, and the Edwards river comes a close second, hope you take a good book as you don't have a 🐕🐕 to talk to when solo, cheers mate, hope to see you around, Neil.
G'day Neil, So many great spots to camp along the Murray. I'll be checking more out for sure. I wish i could take a dog with me. I dont have one because most of the places i go are National Parks. No dogs. Nah mate, no book i just listen to the surrounds of where i am. Just love it. Thanks mate for your feedback. Cheers Tim
Nice quiet spot, didn't hear one wake boat doof doof music while they throw a wash that smash's the crap out the banks. I live on the river and covid lock down in the city has been kind of nice up here.
Gees I don’t know mate taking the modern day man from snowy river out of the Vic high country, just kidding mate looks an awesome place, looking forward to the next part of your trip, stay safe 🍺🍺
G'day Allan, Haha Lol It was a really nice change from the high country. This was a top spot and so is the video for next week. Thanks a lot for your feedback. You stay safe also mate. Cheers Tim
Hi timo it’s been a while I couldn’t see your live show and your videos due to my iPad has had the blink I can’t effort a new one so I got to let it charge for days before I get to watch my favourite shows any way love this video on the Murray can’t beat it good on you buddy 🇦🇺👍🏽👌🏼☝🏼💪🏼🍻🥩timo weres the dead horse in the burger 🍔🤓

Love this Tim. Especially like when you take a few minutes to give a bit of geography or history chat in there. For mine it adds a lot to the videos that other similar channels don’t. Would love to see a bit more of it. Keep it up and stay safe.
Gday mate, Thanks for that. I do like the history side of the places I go. Really adds to the trip when you find out some of the olden day facts of the area. Thanks a lot for your feedback mate, I greatly appreciate it. Cheers Tim
@@glennpayne9103 not correct. Its flowing very fast and will never be clear , when that happens . It does clear up a lot when the natural flow settles .

G'day Laurel,
I feel for you guys in NSW. I hope things change soon for all of us so we can all travel again.
You take care and thanks for your feedback.
Cheers Tim
Thanks Mate, very relaxing, great video once again Batesy. I spend a lot of time on the Murray living in North East Victoria, the Cockies allways get me out of the swag without fail. Safe travels Mate.
Hahah Yeah the cockies wake up early on the Murray. Lol
Really nice having them around on this camp.
Thanks for your feedback.
Cheers Tim
Another great video mate. Something different. I spent a lot of time around Horsham when I was younger. Similar sort of country. Must check out the Murray River one day. Love the music you use in your videos.
G'day Chris,
Yeah mate, try and check it out some day, really nice spot.
Thanks for your feedback, i greatly appreciate it.
Cheers Tim
Absolutely sensational! Never get tired of your videos mate very relaxing 👌👍🍻🤠
Thanks Brody, greatly appreciate that mate. It was a top spot.
Cheers Tim
You & I are of similar creed Timmy. River, campfire, swag, simple food, "sensational". Camped very close to there a couple of months ago. Might not be paradise, but you can see it from there. PS we differ on eggs (egg rings , soft), bacon (streaky), tommy sauce a must.
G'day Mark,
Yeah mate, simple setup and simple cookups. Just the best. Lol
Yeah we are different on the cooking, but both options taste amazing on the campfire.
Thanks for your feedback mate.
Cheers Tim
Great scenery and imagery of The Murray and how good does that burger look…. Not a bad way to live…. Not a bad way at all….
Thanks mate. Great trip mate, the Murray has it all going on.
That burger was gold, simple but really tasty.
Thanks mate for your reply.
Cheers Tim.
Plenty of eagles up there I hear Tim mate. Beautiful. It’s an awesome river that Murray. Our Murray River here in WA is far less large, but still stunning. Ours is only 130 odd ks long, a far cry from 2500 haha.
Gday mate,
Yeah I had two sea eagles nesting just across the river from my camp.
To far away to show on camera.
Great watching them though.
The Murray is so nice mate, the next trip is in the planning.
Thanks mate for your reply.
Cheers Tim.
Lucky bugger.
Once the Melbourne lock down and curfew are over and we are back to some form of normality I'm moving to the regional areas 😁
It does help mate being in Regional.
But this was filmed a week or so ago when the whole of Victoria came out of lock down. Then back in again.
Take care mate.
Cheers Tim
g'day Tim,looking forward to our sydney lockdown finishing so i can do some more camping myself,,, the quiet silence there was deafening !!!! sydney dave
G'day Dave,
Mate i really hope Sydney can get on top of the current situation. Really feeling for you all mate.
Stay safe and hopefully we can all get back out soon.
Take care mate.
Cheers Tim
Noice! . . . I was beginning to think you forgot to pack that chair 😅🤣 . . . Great spot!
Nah i have it. Just like to sit on the ground.. Lol
Cheers Tim
Brilliant Tim..Just what I needed to make feel Ive escaped from Lockdown !
Gday Scott,
Thanks mate. You take care and stay safe.
Thanks for your feedback.
Cheers Tim.
Awesome serenity buddy. Did you see anyone else camping
G'day Louis,
No, didn't see anyone for the whole time. Just what was needed.
Thanks mate.
Cheers Tim
Living through your eyes again mate... Lockdown #6 doing my head in, forgotten what my swag looks like!! Thanks for the vid Batesy!
G'day Chris,
Take care mate and stay safe. Thinking of all you guys in lock down. I really hope its over soon and we can all travel again.
Thanks for your feedback mate.
Cheers Tim
Love the slow motion on the cooking 😄 I was salivating for at least 50 percent of the video. Beautiful spot and nicely filmed. What a life! ...well done Tim.
Thanks mate. The slow mo stuff just adds to the video.
I appreciate your feedback mate.
Cheers Tim
Looks nice Tim
It sure is Luke. Great spot mate.
Cheers Tim
Takes me back to when the kids were young (20 years ago, lol).
We had a couple of weeks almost exactly where you are, every Christmas for 5 years until we headed north to Qld. The kids still talk about it
If COVID ever finishes I am going up there for a holiday now I am back in gods country, Victoria
Thanks for reminding me
Gday Neil,
Mate that sounds like great family memories. Seeing it 20yrs ago would have been amazing.
I hope lock downs end soon mate for everyone to get back out again.
Take care mate and thanks for your reply.
Cheers Tim.
love the brickies trowel for a spatula
Thanks mate.
My last trowel when I finished my bricklaying business.
Works a treat.
Cheers Tim
G'day Tim, l have slipped down to the Murray each year for yonks to fish 🎏🎏 near Mildura and l think it's one of the magical spots in Australia, and the Edwards river comes a close second, hope you take a good book as you don't have a 🐕🐕 to talk to when solo, cheers mate, hope to see you around, Neil.
G'day Neil,
So many great spots to camp along the Murray. I'll be checking more out for sure.
I wish i could take a dog with me. I dont have one because most of the places i go are National Parks. No dogs.
Nah mate, no book i just listen to the surrounds of where i am. Just love it.
Thanks mate for your feedback.
Cheers Tim
Hey Tim, great to see you out and about again. And, as ever, incredible location. Gosh, how i wish i lived in Aussie..... Stay safe that side..... 🤘
G'day Paul,
Mate, this was a really nice spot on the Murray River.
Where are you from mate?
Cheers Tim
@@timbates4wdadventures Botswana - the sand pit of Africa 😂😂😂😂

Wicked, thanks for dropping in.
Onya batesy wish I was there not in lock down. Cheers 🍻
G'day mate,
One day when you can, check it out., Great spot.
Take care mate and stay safe.
Cheers Tim
Nice quiet spot, didn't hear one wake boat doof doof music while they throw a wash that smash's the crap out the banks. I live on the river and covid lock down in the city has been kind of nice up here.
Yeah mate, none of those going past at all. Bit cold yet for boats.
It would be nice living near the Murray River, great spot.
Cheers Tim
Gees I don’t know mate taking the modern day man from snowy river out of the Vic high country, just kidding mate looks an awesome place, looking forward to the next part of your trip, stay safe 🍺🍺

You stay safe also mate.
Cheers Tim

Cheers Tim
Brilliant Timbo,another great video absolutely loved it 👍
Thanks Rick, i appreciate your feedback mate.
Cheers Tim
Love this Tim. Especially like when you take a few minutes to give a bit of geography or history chat in there. For mine it adds a lot to the videos that other similar channels don’t. Would love to see a bit more of it. Keep it up and stay safe.
Gday mate,
Thanks for that. I do like the history side of the places I go.
Really adds to the trip when you find out some of the olden day facts of the area.
Thanks a lot for your feedback mate, I greatly appreciate it.
Cheers Tim
Great vid mate loved
Thanks very much. Greatly appreciate your feedback.
Cheers Tim
The murray is a lovely place, apart from the river being pretty dirty. Cheers tim, great work ethic in the video.
G'day Hamish,
Yeah mate, this was a great trip. Ep 2 next week
Thanks for your reply and feedback.
Cheers Tim
The river never runs clear... it has largely a mud bottom and the feral carp population keep stirring up the mud near the banks.
@@glennpayne9103 not correct. Its flowing very fast and will never be clear , when that happens . It does clear up a lot when the natural flow settles .
Great work Tim!
A special place for sure, up there with the river red gums.
Good work packing the rod 🎣, next time mate 😉🐟
Cheers Marty
G'day Marty,
Very special spot mate. The might river red gums are amazing.
It was a good throwing a line in. No good though, but relaxing at the same time.
Thanks mate for your reply.
Cheers Tim
