Bob Turners

Bob Turners is a primitive riverside campsite on the Colo River within Wollemi National Park, Blue Mountains, New South Wales.

It is reached via the Bob Turners Walking Track, which descends from a car park at the end of Bob Turners Fire Trail off Putty Road at Colo Heights.

The moderately challenging walk winds down a series of ridges through gullies of smooth-barked apple, grey ironbark, and Burrawang trees before emerging onto a small sandy beach at the junction with Hungryway Creek.

The campsite sits at a scenic bend in the river, backed by cliff walls dense with towering gum trees that create a strong sense of seclusion. There is a good swimming hole directly at the camp.

The site has no facilities whatsoever, and visitors are expected to carry out all rubbish. It also serves as a put-in or take-out point for paddlers running the Colo River, with Colo Meroo campground accessible roughly 11 kilometres downstream along the river.
