Checking Station is a Parks Victoria campground in Victoria’s High Country, 10 km N of Noojee.
A great base for trailbike riders to explore the diverse range of surrounding tracks in the Noojee State Forest. While primarily catering for trailbike riders, this site is also a pretty place for a picnic or camping. A pretty, open site located where the pine plantations meet tall native forest. Called the checking station as it was once a stopping point for harvested logs to be graded before being transported to mill. The site offers a small flat, grassed area suitable for walk-in camping. Car parking is immediately adjacent and toilet is nearby. Catering primarily for weekend trailbike riders, this is also a nice spot to picnic during the week with a small number of tables and open fire…
