Natimuk (near Mt Arapiles) 1 night

Mt Arapiles is a massive outcrop that is one of the rock climbing meca’s of Australia.  John and I used to climb back in the days (John more so) and realising this place was on-route back to Melbourne was a bonus!  After a day travelling across from Adelaide we arrived to find masses of climbers camped in the State Forest camping ground at the foot of the mount.  It was another book on-line job and really designed for tents not anything being towed, so we headed to the nearest town to find a caravan park.  Natimuk is a cute little place about 5kms away and the caravan park was next to a lake, man was it cold at night, we woke up to find ice on the table etc.  Anyway we packed up the next morning and headed back to Mt Arapiles to watch some climbing, it was a beautiful day and there were climbers all over the show.  I have highlighted a few on one of the photos below with red circles.
