Great spot just 10/15mins drive from Bright. Fire pits with cooking trays/hooks - BYO wood. Drop toilets - Very clean + large supply of hand sanitizer available when we went. BYO loo paper. Plenty of sites - quiet when we went in winter - very cold at night. Sites next to river and also further back - was better in July as river was super flooded. Some wildlife. Dog friendly. Just off Great Alpine Road but minimal traffic noise.

So far we have stayed two nights really enjoying our stay in Smoko. Great place for a "Smoko" 🚴‍♂️✨👍

Nice spot, lots of rooms and beautiful surroundings. Would benefit from a bin of some sorts however we don’t mind taking out rubbish with us. Unfortunately the campers before us left the spots in disgusting condition with rubbish and poo and toilet paper all over camps. Despite there being a clean toilet 50m away. Despite previous campers who have no respect for the environment, there was lots of room and a picturesque setting.

Stayed 24 hrs. Plenty of different camp spots so dont need to be on top of one another. Quiet peaceful place not to far from Bright for resupplies if staying longer. Easy to find. Little creek to get wet if one is hot. Great spot guys.
