Butts Reserve
Butts Reserve
Butts Reserve is a free dispersed campground situated in a north-northeast-running gully on the outskirts of Maldon, Victoria, about 2. 3 km from the town centre on the road to Mount Tarrengower.
Set at roughly 400 metres elevation, the site offers scattered shade from Manna Gum, Yellow Gum, Broad-leaved Peppermint, and Grey Box trees over grass and granite boulders. The gully access road can become rutted after rain.
A separate day-use area near the entrance features shaded tables and fireplaces with level parking bays. Toilet facilities are located at the road entrance. Some campsites on the lower slopes are uneven, but flatter spots can be found further into the trees.
Dogs must be kept on lead. The reserve sits at the base of Mount Tarrengower (571 m), and walking tracks lead to historic gold mining relics nearby. The lookout atop the mount, reachable by foot or vehicle, offers panoramic views.
The historic gold-rush town of Maldon and the larger township of Castlemaine are both within easy reach.
