About this campground

One of the four huts located along the Aberfeldy Backroad 4WD Tour - Donnelly's Creek Loop, Goonans Hut is ideal for smaller groups stopping overnight.

The site has some capacity for pitching tents or rolling out a swag outside of the hut also.

The site has picnic tables, fire pits and a toilet. Donnelly’s Creek can be accessed by a short trail to the side of the hut.

Goonans Hut was originally constructed in the early 1980’s by gold fossickers. The hut was burnt down by bushfires in 2013 and rebuilt to its current condition in 2015.

The new hut features a concrete floor, a bench, fireplace and a water tank.

Please look after our historic huts by following the High Country Huts Code.
