Milson Island is located in New South Wales, Australia. It was first settled over 100 years ago and has been used as a mental hospital, a jail, and now a sports and recreation centre. It is in the middle of the Hawkesbury River, so the only means of transport is by ferry. Some of the activities available at Milson Island include a high ropes course, rock climbing, canoeing, kayaking and abseiling. The accommodation is 3-4 stars with many lodges. The camp usually suits two small schools or a big school at the same time. It is a popular place for camps for many schools across Sydney, and families go there for a nice, relaxed and fun retreat. All that is left of the old mental asylum is the nurses' quarters or hospital. When the mental asylum was operating, an alarm system was set up, so that people on the island could keep themselves safe from mad escapees. The nurses' quarters are now rotted away, but the furnishings from the asylum still remain. The Sport and Recreation Centre still uses the refurbished sleeping quarters as the dining room and kitchen. The rooms at Milson Island range from school kids' rooms that sleep up to 5 people to lodges for one to four people. |The Milson Island Pool |Milson Island high ropes challenge ==External links== (NSW Department of Sport & Recreation - Milson Island ) * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Milson Island」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
