'The Farm' is a 640 acre (260 hectares) property camping park that lies just
outside of Blackbutt.
21st October 2007 ~ we just got back from a visit to The Farm. John, who owns The Farm, is encouraging recreational riding, especially catering for families and he has set up quite a few areas for kids to learn to ride properly. There are some awesome hill climbs for bikes, quads and 4wds alike, with some really challenging areas for all. Not to forget our trials riders ~ there are some great creek beds and hill climbs for them too. Please make sure you phone John & book in as bookings are essential. You are assured a wonderful time at The Farm as long as you respect the park rules.
