Blue Pool

Located within the Freestone Creek Camping Precinct, Blue Pool is a popular scenic spot with a large natural waterhole, making it a fantastic place to visit during the warmer months. The pool sits at the base of a narrow basalt gorge on the Freestone Creek, surrounded by rocky outcrops and native forest. A rocky beach provides a place to sit and take in the tranquillity of the site, especially during the quieter months. Blue Pool is a place of great cultural significance to the Braiakaulung people of the Gunaikurnai nation. The nearby town of Briagolong was named in recognition of the close connection the Braiakaulung people had to the area. Blue Pool is a walk-in camping site. Campers will need to park their vehicles in the designated parking area and bring their camp kit to the site. There are no dedicated vehicle-based camping sites for camper trailers or caravans and visitors towing caravans should park at The Quarries Reserve just south of Blue Pool. This site has restricted access and large caravans or groups may find it difficult to park or turn. This site is near water. Make sure you read the water safety tips before you go.
