The Ippinitchie Campground, located within the forest, offers a perfect base for campers to explore the local area, wildlife, and scenery. The area also features several walking and cycling trails, including sections of the renowned Heysen and Mawson Trails, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the natural beauty and rich history of the region.
