Barossa
(Preview)
Hi all. I am heading to Barossa in early November. I was going to free camp at Greenock Reserve. In Camps 8 it states 24 hours. Bugger, I wanted to stay 3 nights. Does anyone know how strict they are ? If they charge a "small fee" surely it wouldn't matter staying 3 nights as long as it isn't packed ?
