Discovering the Wonders of Murray River Solo Camping .

Discovering the Wonders of Murray River Solo Camping while I enjoyed by the bird sounds that echo along the river.
This solo camping trip just that, amazing.
Not only did i have full Murray River frontage, but straight across from my camp was the entrance of the Murrumbidgee River.
I had the best of both worlds when it comes to iconic Australian river systems.
Im not sure if it gets much better than that.
These two solo camping episodes along the banks of the Murray River on the Victorian side, are a couple of the most relaxing trips i have ever been on.
Once again i have cooked all of my meals on the coals of the campfire while enjoying the musical birds sounds that rang out from the Murray River Red Gums above. These amazing sounds of nature really helped to make this Murray River solo camping trip a very relaxing and enjoyable one.
Campfire cooking is the best way to have cooked meals while away camping.
I just love everything about solo camping.

You can not imagine how enjoyable it was, to view your Murray River camping videos, with a cup of tea, in front of the wood fire, while in a Sydney lockdown, with the cold wind blasting and heavy rain outside. So good, that i might just go and watch them all over again. Thanks Tim.

[@timbates4wdadventures]

Gday Kevin, Really feeling it for you guys. You take care mate and stay safe. I hope it’s not long before you can go and sit beside the Murray River. Thanks for your reply mate. Cheers Tim

[@RareGem369]

Now this is livin! Much better than the polluted rat race of the cities. Beautiful! 👌🏽

[@timbates4wdadventures]

Gday mate, It sure was a great camp spot that one. Very relaxing on the Murray River. Thanks mate for your feedback. Cheers Tim

[@ianweeden5403]

Love watching your videos. It's a wonderful escape for me. I toured Aus in 1988, in a 1973 Holden Kingswood station wagon. Managed 10,000k in 6 months. Had a wonderful time. I'd love to return one day. Here in the UK, not quite so much space to explore. Always loved camping. I must get a Dutch oven. Your food looks great. Keep up the good work.

[@timbates4wdadventures]

Gday Ian, Firstly, thanks for dropping in from the Uk mate. Travelling Australia how you did all those years ago in the iconic Holden Kingswood is such a great story. It would have been amazing seeing the country back then. Maybe you’ll get back here one day, maybe not in a Kingswood lol. I love campfire cooking. Thanks a lot for your feedback mate. Cheers Tim

[@berniebgf]

This is the best we're going to get while we're locked up, thanks Time. Looking forward to hitting the bush ASAP.

[@timbates4wdadventures]

Yeah mate, i hope things change for all of us very soon. Need to get back camping. Stay safe mate. Cheers Tim

[@ywork4sam148]

Mate, absolutely superb! There is something about the Murray, the birds talking, tranquility and serenity. So many beautiful spots to camp along it’s length yet they are all so different. This clip was spot on ☝️

[@timbates4wdadventures]

Yeah mate, the Murray has so much going for it to have a very relaxing time away camping. The bird sounds are simply stunning. Really makes the trip. Thanks for your feedback mate. Cheers Tim

Serenity of camping is best. It's what you make of it and how you do it that says a lot. Enjoy

Good idea Tim is when the Pans is hot enough and the Scrambled eggs are nearly ready Well Transfer of the Heat and let them finish ! Noise with a few dots of Soy Sauce Cheers Tim Love the Murray! Isn’t it a Beautiful Country we all live in !! Besides Those pricks sitting in Parliament’s around Australia!

Here's a cooking idea for ya Tim... go down to coles and buy a packet of pre-marinated honey soy chicken wings. They work so well when cooked in a frypan over the coals while camping and taste sensational! Cheers Joe👍🏻

[@timbates4wdadventures]

G'day mate, I havent done the marinated chicken wings on my videos, but i have done the honey soy marinated drum sticks, char grilled on the campfire. They are really nice. Thanks mate, i appreciate your feedback. Cheers Tim.

[@damianshale4567]

Jeez, Tim, there's so much to like about these series of videos. The photography is great. The region is awesome, and so different to the high country to which we are accustomed to seeing you in. With all the current level of restrictions, it's videos like this that give us all, a little escapism. A chance to remember what it's like to live a world away from this current nightmare we find ourselves in. Don't stop making these videos, please.

[@stevereed6334]

Another great video mate.

[@timbates4wdadventures]

Thanks mate. Cheers Tim

I hope theres no gators and crocs in that creek bed. Only twice did i ever camp near a water source. But the guys always allowed me to pitch my tent slightly away from the edge of the river during our motorcycles adventure trip. They know im worried too much on gators and crocs coming up from the river. But it seems theres none when you camp there. Maybe im worried too much. Loves Hayliee (Brisbane)😘😘😘😘😘

[@timbates4wdadventures]

Yeah mate, we dont have those critters in our rivers. To cold for them down here. You can have them mate. You take care and stay safe up in Brissy. Cheers Tim

Great looking camping areas in both Part 1 and Part 2. With Part 2 is that Forestry Camping or local Government? I am in Qld and area looks great Murray and Murrumbidgee. Great videos thank you so much.

[@timbates4wdadventures]

Gday Stephen, Really nice camping spots mate in both episodes. Very relaxing to say the least. Thanks mate for your feedback. Greatly appreciate it. You take care up in QLD mate. Cheers Tim.

Great video mate. I headed away for my first solo trip last weekend in tassie. Definitely a different experience but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Will definitely be doing more in the future 👌

[@timbates4wdadventures]

Thats ace mate that you had a good time on your solo camping trip. Tassie would be unreal to get away in on your own. Thanks mate for your feedback. Cheers Tim

[@Phil_McAvity]

I think I would have put a roast in the Travel Buddy & watched a movie in the car on the iPad instead of being out in the rain lol. On ya Batesy 👍

[@timbates4wdadventures]

Sounds like a great idea. But the oven can be used without the engine running. Even with the rain, it was really nice being out. Thanks mate for your reply. Cheers Tim

[@Phil_McAvity]

@@timbates4wdadventures mate get yourself a lithium battery & step up converter and 👌. But yeah you can’t beat cooking over a campfire aye 👍

[@herschelrowe6026]

Such a pretty place I would love to visit you country and go camping but health and money want allow it I could get lost in the outback in my earlier years

[@timbates4wdadventures]

There’s so many great camping spots along the Murray River. This is just one of many. Hopefully, one day you can come and check it out for yourself. Cheers Tim

[@haydenwittig8877]

Tim What would be your favourite spot to camp that place that left you would say left an impression on me, I talking for everyone here your are very well filmed and edited and camp fire scenes provide that feeling of calm and relaxation in these Covid times im camping this week at a isolated location south of Sydney near Woronora Dam cant wait to get away from the world for 24 hrs.

[@timbates4wdadventures]

G'day Hayden, mate way to many spots i have camped in to really pick a fav spot. They are all special. Cant get enough. Thanks a lot mate for your feedback. Lets hope we can all travel soon. You take care up in Sydney mate. Cheers Tim

[@lukebrady3728]

Hi Tim. great video. Have you in any of your trips and camping along the Murray river, seen any of the monitor species or the rare Murray Darling Carpet Python ? Also, where did you get your cooking stand/pot/pan holder with the adjustable height and swivel, they look so simple yet extremely effective.

[@timbates4wdadventures]

Thanks mate. Glad you enjoyed the video. Great trip and location that was on the Murray. I haven’t seen any goanna’s, I have while camping on the Snowy River. Certainly no sightings of the python you mentioned. That set is hand made from about 10 years ago. Not from a shop. Cheers Tim.

The Charles Sturt expedition in 1830 then retraced their journey by rowing the 1500 kms back against the tide.

[@timbates4wdadventures]

Righto. Cheers Tim

[@grahamwells7263]

Thanks Tim , great , I'm jealous 😀

[@timbates4wdadventures]

G'day Graham, Stay safe mate and hopefully we can all go soon. Thanks for your reply mate. Cheers Tim

[@patrob100]

The boat is back again.

[@timbates4wdadventures]

Yeah mate. Looks like they having a great time in that going up the river. Half there luck. Cheers Tim

[@davidlilley4416]

I love your style of camping. Mine is the same I just want to keep things simple. Mates think I am strange as I love solo camping and now I know I am not on my own.

[@timbates4wdadventures]

Gday David, Yeah mate, solo camping isn’t for everyone, and I lot of people don’t understand why you camp alone in the bush. Simple camping is the best. Thanks for your feedback. Cheers Tim
