1 Review on “Lonsdale Park”
I stayed here for a couple of days on a school camp with my daughter in 2024. The camp is really well maintained and good facilities. There is lots of open grassy areas for tents, parking or playing. A nice patch of bush with an obstacle course and it’s an easy day hike along country roads, through farmland and native bush to a large swimming hole.
