Just before you get to Ebor there is a turn off the the Dutton trout hatchery. Take this road for about 5klms. Its dirt, but you can get a 2wd in , if it doesn,t rain hard.There,s a lovely spot by the Little Styx R. Crystal clear mountain water full of small rainbow trout. Drop toilets, and no time limit. Basic supplies can be had at Ebor, and Armidale is 50klms away for big shops. One of my favourite spots anywhere.1100m high and cold at times. Up the road is a lookout at 1580m!lots of rabbits and rosellas.Bill
Thanks Bill, we will definitely be going there. hope to be there about 6/7 February, 2012 (school holidays over so should be quiet.) many thanks Gitsho

gitsho, thats just up on top of the range above us, used to go up that way a fair bit years ago when in a 4x4 club but have not been up there for a long time,
Further allong the styxe forest way there was free camping at Wattle flat, in the forest. Mate , it will be very wet up there at the moment, 200ml ++ & still raining. Dorrigo Mt Rd is closed at the moment, Belingen is flooded & Macleay is rising so it will be very wet from all directions.
