A makeshift camp at Cotter Campground is being dispersed by police after protesters made their way to the reserve following their eviction from Exhibition Park.
Police are attempting to move the Convoy to Canberra demonstrators, who have packed out the campsite 25 minutes west of Canberra's city centre.
The campsite, which has the capacity for 200 people, has been overwhelmed with campers vowing to remain in the ACT.
