"The
Danelaw" is a 120 acre secluded pine forest surrounded
by mountain ranges bordering Morton National Park located near
the town of Braidwood, 3 hours from Sydney and 1.5 hours from
Canberra. Please
refer to the links below for maps and driving directions.
The
ground is mostly flat with gently sloping hills in some areas.
There
are wetlands with crystal clear freshwater creeks. The property
remains lush and green even during drought. Open flat areas can
accommodate all types of open field activities or large marquees.
Extensive camping areas are in close proximity to access roads.
Lush growths of ferns separate and provide privacy between camping
areas. The site has a number of independent encampments. "Dunghaven"
is the encampment where Danelaw has installed facilities and makes
available for hire to other groups. The site is suitable for all
kinds of small or large events in picturesque relaxing surroundings.

Danelaw
acquired the property in May 2003. Since that first day we have
been hard at work installing as much infrastructure as possible
to make everyone's events at "The Danelaw" comfortable,
enjoyable and inviting.
Understanding
the names:
- The
Danelaw is the name of the property.
- Dunghaven
is the name of the encampment and village where Danelaw hosts
its events.
- Dungkeep
is the name of the fort at Dunghaven.
- What's
with the names? The Dungbeetle is our club's (Danelaw Inc)
official mascot. We proudly pay tribute the Dungbeetle because
just like these industrious and under praised little insects,
Danelaw too, toils relentlessly to push shit uphill. No matter
how large the load nor how difficult the obstruction, both
we and the intrepid dungbeetles just keep pushing even harder.
- Beorg-Wic
is the encampment that AAF has reserved for hosting their October
Long Weekend event named Beorg-wic Under Munt. The two encampments
are approximately 700m apart. Other groups have begun reserving
areas in between for their own fortified encampments. Please
refer to the Property Map or contact us for further information.
