Skipworth Reserve is located on the banks of the Goulburn River.The campground is 300m past Poletti's track on the Jamieson Woods Point rd which is sealed. There is ample room at the grassy campgrounds although like most nice spots can get extremely busy in the peak periods and its first in best dressed.

The campgound offers firepits and 2 long drop toilets although one is at the back of the campground amongst the trees. Care needs to be taken for mine shafts also. There is a rotunda to cook under if required.

Its is 7km from the historic High Country town of Jamieson which has a 2 pubs one being the Courthouse Hotel and the other Jamieson Brewery which is famous for its Raspberry beer. Fuel is also available in town along with a general store and a cafe that is only open on weekends (but maybe check 1st). The Kevington Pub (circa late 1800's)which is the last original pub between Jamieson and Woods Point is not far either if you continue past the campground towards Woods Point.

Bushwalking,fishing and swimming and 4wd is also a popular way to spend your time here or just sit around the fire enjoying your surroundings. It is also pet friendly.

This is where to head
