Primitive camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Family-friendly
Recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp is great for families and kids.
Beautiful located right beside the Ringarooma River. Fish in the river, swim or just spot a platypus in the river. There is a kayak and a paddle board that you are welcome to use to have a paddle in the water. Property is located a 5 minutes' drive out of Derby. You can cross the river and then you are on the bike track that will take you to Derby or Branxholm, this is a beautiful walking track or carry your bike across river then ride. Suggest site 4 and 5 for best phone TV reception. Quiet location perfect place to stay for a few nights. Awesome quiet spot to get away. Property is on a working dairy/beef farm. We wood available for sale at camp to use in fire pits provided please let me know if you would like this $15 per bag. By arrangement if time permits I can arrange for a cost of $20 per person a look at our dairy during milking.

A great place to base yourself if you want to ride the trails at Derby and explore the area. Rosie welcomed us with a freshly picked pumpkin and was very friendly and helpful.

Great location, kids loved playing in the river. Nice and sunny in the morning. Loved it so much we extended our stay an extra 2 nights.

What a beautiful spot to camp. So peaceful and relaxing. We had loads of fun with the kayaks. Great access to the bike track leading into Derby. Plenty of nice dry firewood. Our host, Rosie was lovely.

Camping with kids
Fraser flats was a beautiful and peaceful spot to stay. The creek was a massive hit with the kids, trying their hand at kayaking and fishing. We got to see the resident platypus having a swim too! The kids also loved the tractors and tyre swing. So much room for the kids to run, explore and ride their bikes. Rosie provided us with fire wood (free of charge!) for us to have a camp fire and even came and gifted us some freshly picked apples off her tree. The communication and directions Rosie gave us were spot on. This camp spot was perfect for our short trip, over the 3 nights we got to explore Mt Paris Dam, St Columba Falls, Little Blue Lake and the Derby tunnel. The camp sites were VERY generous. This site is perfect if you don't want to be cramped in with 1000 other travellers. Thank you Rosie for a lovely stay, we will be back 😊

Excellent campsite and located clos
Great location, easy to access, nice flat area with plenty of space. The river is beautiful and within 10 minutes from the centre of Derby. We were there for our first Blue Derby Mountain bike ride. even through the town was busy, at our campsite we felt like we were the only ones around.
