Templeton's Crossing campsite
- Camping
- Not confirmed by the operator — check first
Open campsite by Eora Creek at Templeton's Crossing (about 1,760 m), after the long day over the Mount Bellamy area; nights are cold, so bring warm layers. Some groups use the community guesthouse nearby.
Checked online in October 2026. Places marked "not confirmed by the operator" are named in trek operator itineraries, older listings or on OpenStreetMap but have no official page; village sites change, so your operator decides where you sleep. Village huts and campsites cannot be booked and are shared first come, first served; your licensed operator pays the landowner fees and carries tents or hammocks.
