RV Friendlies & Events

Tungamah is a vibrant rural community on the banks of the Broken Creek, in the Goulburn Valley region of northern Victoria. In recent years it has come to life as a place where you can camp creek side at their RV friendly site with superb amenities, walk to the pub, wake up to a barista coffee from the convenience store and immerse yourself in the district’s first silo art.RV travellers will be left extending their stays after spending a night or two at Lions Park along the creek. Parking is only available to those travelling in self-contained vehicles, but travellers are permitted to stay at no cost for up to 7 days. Toilets, water, barbecues and bins are accessible at the site, while a public dump point is available along Spry Street. Pets on leads are also permitted. Food and drink lovers can sample fresh natural produce available along the Murray Farm Gate Trail with Farm Gates located all around the area, while nature lovers can explore the unique native flora and fauna of the region’s woodlands, wetlands, lakes and rivers. If wider exploring is something you desire, Tungamah has several surrounding towns and villages you can experience, taking in the time to soak in real regional life and feel the country air.Tourist/Visitor Information CentreTungamah Visitor Information Point46 Middleton St, Tungamah VIC 3728Ph: 0428 918 251Casual Parking (near retail centre)    Lions Park on Bailey St or Barr StreetShort Term Parking    Lions Park, Bailey St. Self-contained only, nil charge, 7 days, BBQ, bins, toilets, water, covered seating, pets on leadDump Point    Spry Street, Lat: -36.163055, Long: 145.882112Potable Water    Lions Park, Bailey StHospital    Closest Yarrawonga – approx. 25km, approx. 20 min driveDoctors Surgery    Closest Yarrawonga – approx. 25km, approx. 20 min driveDentist    Closest Yarrawonga – approx. 25km, approx. 20 min drivePharmacy    Closest Yarrawonga – approx. 25km, approx. 20 min driveSupermarket    37 Barr St, TungamahPh: 03 5748 5505

Millicent is located in South Australia and is estimated to be about 469 kilometres west of Melbourne, 401 kilometres southeast of Adelaide, and 50 kilometres north of Mount Gambier. The town was first proclaimed in 1870 after a township was developed on the limestone ridge in the centre of the Millicent flats. It is named after Millicent Glen, daughter of the first Anglican Bishop of Adelaide and wife of one of the early pioneers. Millicent soon became well known as a major rural centre for the South Coast and population grew as pine plantations developed in the nearby ranges. Today, the local industries include paper and pulp manufacturing, as well as a variety of crops, such as blue gum and pine plantations.Visitors to Millicent can find overnight parking in rest areas north and south of the towns centre on the Princes Highway. Stays are free of charge and are limited to 24 hours. A dump point and potable water are located at the Visitors Information Centre.While in town you will be spoilt for choice; from the historical museums and native wildlife reserves to the walking trails and magnificent views of natural wonders, you will be planning your return visit before you have even left the region. The Living History Museum, located next door to the Information Centre, has evolved around the old school house. The Millicent, Victoriana, Aboriginal and Natural History rooms are located here and include over 20 fully restored horse drawn vehicles which are an impressive feature of the Museum.Tourist/Visitor Centre       1 Mount Gambier Rd, Millicent SAPh: 08 8733 0904Millicent@wattlerange.sa.gov.auwww.wattlerange.sa.gov.auCasual Parking       Millicent VIC, 1 Mount Gambier Rd, Millicent, 30 parking spots, tlts avail, (24hr)Short Term Parking           3.5km north of Millicent on left off Princes Hwy.  Max 1 night's stay, or5.7km south of Millicent on right off Princes Hwy.
