Mount Werong Campground sits in the remote southern Blue Mountains National Park and serves as a base for exploring a rugged landscape of tall forests, wildlife, and rich Aboriginal and European heritage.

The area falls within the traditional lands of the Gundungurra and Wiradjuri People. Visitors can access the region by 4WD, on foot, or by mountain bike. The 2.

5km Ruby Creek walking track departs from the campground, winding through tall forest along Ruby Creek to the former Ruby Creek Mine, once worked by gold miners sifting for alluvial gold.

A handful of exotic fruit trees and old mine remnants are all that remain of the original bush huts. The nearby 4WD Oberon Colong historic stock route connects to Yerranderie Private Town for further exploration of the area's mining past.

At night, the campground offers dark skies ideal for stargazing, and the call of the powerful owl is sometimes heard through the surrounding forest.
