# The Hermitage

> Human version: https://campertunity.com/listings/campgrounds/hermitage-jerrong-new-south-wales

**[Australia](https://campertunity.com/listings/campgrounds/in/australia) › [New South Wales](https://campertunity.com/listings/campgrounds/in/australia/new-south-wales) › [Jerrong](https://campertunity.com/listings/campgrounds/in/australia/new-south-wales/jerrong)**

The Hermitage is an untouched heavily\-wooded property, nestled on the banks of the Abercrombie River\. The campsites are shared with kangaroos, wallabies, wombats, deer, and of course turtles and fish in the river\. Fish or swim in the river, ride your bikes, or set up camp and then head off on an adventure walk including the Blue Mountains National Park to the south of the river\. The Abercrombie River is known for gold and gemstones, so if you're into panning, there's some good spots along the river\. There are plenty of opportunities for 4WDing and bushwalking in the local area\. Fires are allowed \(fire restrictions permitting, please check local information before lighting\) within the designated areas\. Please only place combustible items in the fire\. Bottles, cans, wipes etc do not burn and any items remaining in the fire may incur a clean up fee\. Wood can be collected from fallen wood around the property, or bring your own if you prefer\. Using nearby rocks to surround your fire is not advisable\. Despite their smooth appearance, they may harbour significant moisture and can be highly explosive when heated in a fire pit or campfire\. River rock is also usually pretty easy to obtain, so it seems like a quick and easy solution\. However, it has a high tendency to explode, so we suggest you avoid it at all costs\. Pets are welcome for a one\-off fee per animal\. Please ensure you remove all trash and evidence of your stay when you depart\. If you arrive and find litter, we would personally appreciate it if you could find room for it in your rubbish collection\. Please take photos of your arrival if you find something and forward it on to us so we can follow up\. We are in the early stages of our Hipcamp journey and there are plans to make for a much more enjoyable experience\. All monies will be re\-invested into facilities\. There is no mobile reception at this location\. There are no toilets at this location \(yet\)\. Please come prepared\. A port\-a\-loo is ideal, or if you are happy with a bush toilet, please bring a shovel to dig a hole or to cover and conceal your deposits\. You can follow us on facebook: https://www\.facebook\.com/thehermitageatjerrong You can view a map of the property which shows different camping locations for your group\. Once you make a booking you will be the only Hipcamp group to access the property and as such can camp in one of three locations, regardless of the site you book\.

As a solo female camper it was wonderful to feel safe and not be surrounded by other campers and also have the company of my dogs. Come prepared for the cold if camping in winter and be fully self contained and definitely need a 4wd to access the site down the steep track. Plenty of wood to collect to keep warm by the fire. Large flat area to choose to set up camp. The host, Brett was very helpful when I arrived late, just on dark and luckily was able to get enough mobile reception at front gate to contact. I really enjoyed exploring the area and loved the historic village of Taralga.  My only regret was only being able to stay 1 night and would definitely like to book  a longer stay to really enjoy the beautiful Abercrombie River, bushwalks and magnificent views and seclusion in nature. Highly recommend. "
