BARRINGTON TOPS NSW | MINUS 2 DEGREES, WILD BRUMBIES, RAINFORESTS AND A CHANCE OF SNOW
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2024
- Join us as we explore the beautiful Barrington Tops area, with the chance of snow we headed for the hills to have a good look around this winter wonderland of sub tropical rainforests, and the amazing wildlife, including wild hoses. After three cold and wet days camping we realised one thing, and that is we should have planned to stay longer. What an absolutely beautiful place this is and there is so much to see. We will be back!

It’s not the brumbies tearing up the turf it’s the pigs. I’ve watched them up there at night. They rip up the turf and eat the worms. They have a good sense of smell. The brumbies just eat grass and just walk through wet grounds.
Nothing like making memories with your family.
Lovely lovely lovely, your videos are always so beautiful. Barrington Tops is so special and so are you guys. Cheers Marg & Steve
Thanks so much
Little Murray Campground is my favourite campground in the Barrington Tops. Relatively open flat grassy areas with a toilet. The locals (brumbies and kangaroos) always say hello.
Enjoy your content. It is great to see content that is not always by the ocean ❤😊
Thanks for watching and the kind words.
Hope this is helpful advice. When cooking with the camp oven next time, layer some bread below all your, helps prevent burning. Works a treat.
Thanks for the tip.
Hi Pete from Cooma NSW here - never been to Barrington Tops, never watched you until now. Definitely heading north and definitely want to see more of your, so normal, so lovely family. Thanks
Thanks for tuning in mate.
You've just lifted your production to a new level. Well done and kerp it coming.
Thanks very much for the kind words.
Another Great Video. Nice to see the family getting out into the bush and enjoying themselves. Winter is a good time for camping. Put plenty of clothes on and light a fire. Camp oven stew or a roast and veggies. Jaffle iron toasty or mash mellows on the fire. Very few flies in winter also.
Thanks for watching. 👍🏼
We've just arrived home today from Polblue Barrington Tops. We live about 2 hrs from there. And it is one of our favourite camping site's. We do Banksia campsite as well. It's so beautiful there
Thanks, nothing better than being out there.
Thanks for tuning in.
Hi guys, just joined your channel and watched Barrington Tops, and GRR. So good. Look fwd to more content. Safe travels,
Thanks for tuning in.
Awesome video, great area. It's good to see you back on the road!
Thanks for watching.
Adam looks like he needs an sts beanie for winter trips like this 😉🙋♂️😬
Bit of a theme to this episode. First you got complimented on having nice wood, then a visit to Cock Rock followed by a stroll through Pinus radiata 😂
😝
Your a good dad mate love the cutting the wood
Thanks 👍 bud.
Great video. I haven’t been up to Barrington Tops yet but it’s on the list after watching this.
Thanks for watching. 👍🏼
Great vid!! Ive only just planed a camp up at the Barringtons so to get such a recent update is great!! well done lots of great info !
Thanks for watching. Stay tuned for a vid on Chichester and south Barrington 👍🏼
It's the feral pigs that root up the ground as shown, not the Brumbies
I love the Barrington Tops. We camped there about 3 or 4 years ago and only for 3 night also as we had no 12 volt or fridge then only esky's and ice. One thing I have noticed since then is that Google maps have changes 2 of the camp site names. Where you and Google Maps said was Banksia is actually Dilgry River and vise versa. Check the address's. Anyway we stayed 1st night there, 2nd night at Horse Swamp and 3rd at Polblue. We visited Little Murray's and Junction Pools and we were in the clouds, it was so awesome seeing such a beautiful spot and being in the clouds. We have some videos of that trip on our channel if you're interested. Anyway nice video it looked like you had a great time.
Thanks for watching guys. Too spot hey, we will check out your vids 👍🏼
Top video guys 👍 Hey Adam looks like you might need -12 offset mud flaps for the front mate. Time Stamp 31:13 Looks like I’m going to need them also. I’ll find out next week when we get our 79 👍👍
Yeah, got some side steps on the way which should sit a bit wider hopefully. Thanks for tuning in. 👍🏼
I did 3 laps of Barrington tops last year in my Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van...not intentionally!
Google maps got me bushed!
It's a good thing I also have Hema maps (both in book form and electronic (satellite)).
Barrington tops is a trap for those who don't know the area.
I went in through Gloucester and after 3 laps and about 2/3rds of a tank of diesel, I found my way out...never to return!
The bushland is awesome, but it's not somewhere I'd want to run out of diesel as I was the only vehicle there at that time.
Yeah sure does pay to have offline mapping such as hema etc.
You've got a great set-up 👍
Thanks for tuning in.
Lovely Ep and spots guys,
Thanks mate.
Hi guys love your videos we’re looking at purchasing the UEV14 just wondering if you guys have done any videos on the full set up of the bat wing Annexe with the walls and what’s your thoughts on how easy it is to set up, because we can’t seem to find anything about it on youtube. Cheers Natasha
Hi Natasha. Sorry we haven’t done a setup video of the full set of awning walls, it’s something we should definitely do. We do put the first wall on around the kitchen regularly and works well to block the rain out. The walls are quite easy to put on in general. It’s just not something we have felt the need to do as yet. Thanks for watching and best wishes with the purchase.
Guys. Don’t be scared to add water to your roast. As much as required during cooking process (little by little) so at the end you’re left with decent liquid on bottom for a bit of sauce or gravy. And nothing gets burnt
Will do, thanks for the tip.
You’re lucky in NSW. In Qld it’s an offence to even possess a chainsaw in a national park. Nor are we allowed to use them in state forests in QLD.
Really ?
Yes really - or machetes. You can only take a small axe

Fires are only permitted in existing QPWS constructed fireplaces.
Fires must be extinguished when unattended.
Firewood must not be collected.
Appliances such as axes can only be used to split firewood or drive tent pegs.

Visit softly

@@lastknownlocation8760 What the authorities don't know won't hurt them. If you're travelling full time and have all that gear in your ute/4wd/trailer, and don't take them out and don't use them then no harm no foul. It's pretty unreasonable to make arbitrary laws/rules and not expect people travelling full time to have these items with them, but common sense does dictate that any reasonable person wouldn't go flaunting these around nor use them in areas they aren't allowed, please note I did say common sense, and I do know that is very rare these days.
Noticed you guys predominantly using an induction cooktop …. guessing no improvements to the dometic 2 burner and its just useless in most instances
We enjoy using the induction as we have a very comprehensive power system in the gworks canopy.
Should have kept going down to elerston,,,, Moon flats pub, then onto Lingalonga Pub towards Scone.
Yeah for sure, we nearly did exactly that.
Another tip
In summer, try Ladies Well campground. Not the best camping but you guys will have a blast, great swimming and rock jumping.
Not that I think you guys have a problem but the Tin Shed Brewery at Dungog is a great spot as well
@@David-rr3hw cheers mate. Yes we have been looking at ladies well, looks awesome thanks for the tip and for commenting.
@@David-rr3hw I've heard Ladies Well has a reputation for getting a bit feral on the weekends
@@eddieadventures2298 it has that element to it. Lots of young “P” platers.. A good day trip let’s say. Camp else where.
collecting firewood in the park is illegal:
Can you carry a chainsaw in a national park?
NATIONAL PARKS AND WILDLIFE ACT 1974 & 2009, 2019- REGULATION If you come across debris across a road or track in a NSW national park, should you use a chainsaw to clear it? This isn't a trick question. It is ILLEGAL to both carry and/or operate a chainsaw in a national park.14 May 2023
Ok thanks. Pretty crazy really
