Aussies off to posh camp in wilderness

While rain disrupts the All Blacks' World Cup preparations, the Wallabies are off to one of the world's most exclusive wilderness locations.

Sydney's Daily Telegraph reports that the squad will next week stay at Mt Borradaile, a wilderness camp with restricted access in the heart of Arnhem Land, 250km east of Darwin.

Its attraction is the unspoiled landscape which encapsulates ecosystems and wildlife and remains as spectacular as it was centuries ago.

Before leaving the remote camp - which costs $480 a night - tribal elder Charlie Mungalda will play the didgeridoo for the team in a rendition of an ancient melody to ward off evil spirits for future battles.

Australian Rugby Union team media manager Djuro Sen said the team would spend "a day or two out bush fishing for barramundi and that sort of thing".
