Set up camp at Surface Point and spend a weekend exploring the fascinating landscape and history of the Enfield State Park. Set above the seasonal Mount Misery Creek with views across the surrounding bushland, this is a great area for bushwalking and gold prospecting. The free campground features a picnic table and wood fire barbecues, with several campsites suitable for tents located around the gravel parking area.
A beautiful Chinese pioneer memorial stands alongside the picnic area, with a plaque displaying the following text:
In memory of the Chinese who worked and died in this area.
A walking track travels past the monument and brings you to a toilet block with drop toilets. This walking track continues into the bush.
Gold prospecting is allowed in Mount Misery Creek as well as the bush, as Enfield State Park is one of
Parks Victoria's approved parks for prospecting. Watch out for mine shafts if walking off track. The creek is often empty, water may not be available for panning or sluicing.
