Just over the border....

If your in the Stanthorpe/Tenterfield area, Undercliffe Falls & Basket Swamp Falls are well worth a visit...
There's a small camp area amongst the trees at Undercliffe(no facilities) & a large sheltered camp area
@ Basket Swamp(toilet & a single picnic table)
Bring your own wood & water. There's also another picnic area 10mins away beside Basket Swamp Falls itself.
Keep these lovely swimming holes in mind for the warmer summer months. :wink:

No worries, cam......they're nice little side trips & alternative campsites if Bald Rock, Boonoo Boonoo & Harigans Lane are full.

Boonoo Boonoo Falls are bone dry at the moment...but the large pool at the head of the falls provides a wonderful place for a cooling dip.

Fire bans are in place at the local campsites.
