Map Ref:Melway Map X921 Ref H5, or VicRoads Map 32 Ref D3
Address & Directions:Hardings Rd off Dillons Lane, Nathalia Vic. The name of the property is "Paringa" and is on a small sign at the start of the driveway. If driving from Melbourne along the Murray Valley Hwy (B400), turn left into Dillons Lane, 2kms before Nathalia township. Travel 5kms to a T-intersection. Turn right (north) for 150 metres only, along Hardings Rd/Broken Creek Drive. Where the road turns sharply to the left, you need to make a right hand turn into the farm entrance, over the cattlegrid and proceed along the track which follows the river for about 1km. The camp site is about 200 metres past the first house on the right. (Look for topless or bottomless mannequins to confirm you are on the correct road.)If lost phone Russell on 0421 730 686 - mobile coverage is quite good.
Approx Distance/Time from GPO:235 kms, 2 hrs 50 mins.
What to Bring:Camping gear including tent or caravan/motorhome, mattress, bedding, campfire chairs, table (some chairs and tables are available at the camp). Plates, cups, cutlery, saucepans or billies (Some are available for communal use). Torch. Food. Drinking water. (Tank water is available for cooking, washing dishes, etc.)
Push bike (optional) and helmet (There are a few mountain bikes up at the camp which you may borrow, still need to bring your own helmet).
Please leave your pets at home.
Toiletries: include sunscreen, repellant, towels.
Clothes: Sunhat, dark glasses, shorts, light shirts for daytime. Jackets, beanies and maybe gloves for the evenings. Days are generally warmer then Melbourne because Nathalia is north of the Divide. Nights can get cold. Feel free to bring a friend! (Failing that, a hot water bottle is not too bad.)
Activities Description:Enjoy a friendly and relaxing weekend camping on the banks of the Broken Creek next to the red gum forest. Many mod cons provided for your comfort.
Choose your activities according to your mood and the temperature. Feel free to paddle a canoe or swim in the river next to the camp. You may prefer to unwind around the all day camp fire, swap a few stories or wander off and have some meditation time.
We are planning to do a couple of downstream group paddles with car pick up. And if possible a paddle in a near-by lake. Nathalia township is worth a look. A couple of coffee shops are available. Take the bike for an easy 6km ride (or maybe use the car). The neighbouring forest is deserted, so a nude walk or ride could be fun!
It seems we will have a massage workshop this time, providing tuition in neck massage, lomi lomi massage and many-hands massage etc. Our old favourites will be back - the 15 man hot tub, and steam tent (probably a bigger one this time).To brighten our nights we are looking for a fire-stick twirler! Are you any good?

Damn I wish I saw this post before it happened. My partner and I have been wanting to go nude camping for ages but just don't know any places where it can be done. Hopefully will be going to the nude man fest camping weekend in a couple of weeks but would love to do it more often.
