Recreation information has moved to the "Can I Swim Here?" section of LAWA
A very popular camping and swimming spot during summer. This site is suitable for swimming following three or more days of no rainfall and if the river is clear. This reserve is located at the northern end of the Cheltenham Hunterville Road just before State Highway 54 crosses the bridge to become the Vinegar Hill Road.
Water quality at Vinegar Hill is generally safe for swimming, except during and after high levels of rainfall.
