[QUOTE="Stevoggo, post: 134328, member: 4471"] Hi All, I suppose i could even place this in the camping section....but I am after some more general info. I live on the NSW central coast and looking to take the kids (and wife) camping out rural NSW around easter. We have a camper trailer so once it is up....we tend to stay in that area for a few days ....but travel short distances by car each day.....rather than "touring" if you get my drift. Tho I would love to spend my time fossicking, detecting and panning, it is unlikely to be the main focus of our holiday :( But we will be keen to try it for a day or two. So what am i after? A campsite, with toilet block and hot water, but still with the rural, bush feel. Somewhere central to other activities or locations, like caves or swimming holes or zoo's or something!? Somewhere to take a family fossicking with a high degree of some success.....I don't mean nuggets I just mean some flecks in a pan, or some nice shiny stones. (I have never done gem hunting but it sounds good.) something that will give the kids some satisfaction......tho they quite like sitting a creek anyway!! Was thinking the Bathurst/Orange area this time maybe Northern NSW next year.....we normally go Beach/Crescent head type camping but are looking for a change. Would love some input from you (seemingly) very knowledgeable people Ha Ha Cheers Steve [/QUOTE]
