I agree with GG, go camping where you don't have to pay.

I am lucky where we are, we go into the Murray Sunset NP around Lindsay Point - Neds Corner (Between Renmark & Mildura), and the camping is awesome, generally no-one else any where near you, no fees, no rangers, no ferals (other than cats & pigs), no noise & plenty of fish = just perfect!

Nothing new, only applies to designated camping sites.

If they are going to start charging they need to look at the NT model.

$7 - $15.80 a site per family, per night.

Some include solar showers and flush toilets.

Not $19 for a bloody pit dunny.

These new fees are going to make us the most expensive in the country.

Email the Parks website - and cc your local member or minister for environment. Complaining and boycotting is probably the only way it will get through. Make PV s revenue lower and make sure they know why.
