Briagolong - Blue Pool
Briagolong, in West Gippsland, is home to the Blue Pool, a stunning, natural, deep, clear swimming hole carved into Freestone Creek with rocky outcrops rising on all sides. There are shallows suitable for small children, as well as deeper spots for good swimmers. The water temperature in summer is mild.
It is surrounded by bushland and has very clear blue water. The Blue Pool is also a very popular camping area with BBQ areas, toilets, a shelter shed and walking tracks.
Access for Dogs:
Dogs must be on a leash.
