Vic Parks Camping Fee Proposal 28-Oct-2013 At 11:15:52 AM stingray4100

You can't actually 'book' a site at any of the grampians campgrounds now.

When I was up there at easter, the booking centre took my money and told me that there was no guarantees of actually getting a site at the campground that I wanted, but not to worry, there'll probably be a site somewhere in the park. An acceptable risk for the money I paid then, but if I'm paying $200 to stay a stapleton for 4 days then they better guarantee me a site.

Of course, this will end up as conflict on the ground at the campsite itself, where those that choose not to pay will occupy sites of those that have paid. Similar to the (not so) great otway walk. Rangers will be required to sort it out, and they'll probably have to employ more of them to do so and the fees will need to rise again.

Imagine being a ranger and trying to police this BS - I feel sorry for them.
