Official details

Full official description
New Chum Flat is an open and lightly treed flat divided by natural screens of vegetation. This provides ideal private camping areas for individual camping parties and small groups. The site is not suitable for larger caravans and motorhomes. The site offers several good access points to the river, with this section of the river being mostly shallow and fast flowing. From Porepunkah, head south at the large round-about onto the Buckland Valley Road for approximately 31 km, where the camping area is located on the left. The Buckland Valley Road is sealed for the first 17km to the Buckland Cemetery and then unsealed for the remainder. The unsealed section is suitable for two wheel drive access throughout the year, however access to the site may be slippery in wet weather and require a high clearance vehicle.
