Barmah Lakes Camping Area sits within Barmah National Park on the Victorian side of the Murray River, nestled in a dense River Red Gum forest.

The area features a number of unnumbered, unmarked camping spots scattered amongst the trees, with established fire pits left by previous visitors throughout the grounds.

The surrounding environment is rich in birdlife, including whistling kites and kingfishers, making it a draw for wildlife enthusiasts. Drop toilet facilities are available around the camping area.

Visitors should be aware of natural hazards, including the possibility of falling limbs or trees, as well as water hazards such as submerged obstacles and strong currents in the nearby river.

Dogs and drones without a permit are not allowed within the national park.
