A visitor’s impression of Coolah

Colin and Mara (Colin and Mara’s Travels on Youtube) came through Coolah recently and stayed in our free RV camping spot.   Watch from 2min mark.  It includes some very cool drone footage of the town and surrounds.

Other free camping spots are available in the district, some have no facilities but are happy to provide an off-road area.
