Planning your trip
The Howqua valley has some of the region's best-known campsites, including Sheepyard Flat, Upper Howqua and Bindaree Flat. Further east, Davies Plain Hut and Top Crossing sit in the Alpine National Park, while Candlebark Campground is in Lake Eildon National Park and the Rocky Creek hike-in camps are on Mount Buffalo. Blue Range Creek and Running Creek are forest camping areas.
Many High Country campsites are state forest camping areas run by the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action. Others are run by Parks Victoria, some through its booking service. Use Billy Camp's source-backed details as a starting point, then check current access and fire conditions. Seasonal road closures can apply in the high country over winter.
