Glamping in the Grampians is a way to experience the fun of camping, the beauty of nature, and the luxury of home comforts without the hassle of having to put up a tent.
Instead of waking up and stepping out of your house into your normal daily routine, you can wake up and step outside of your tent into your own private natural retreat. Fresh air and absolute leisure…what more could you ask for?
When you go glamping, everything is prepared for you, pretty much like going to a 5-star hotel. The only difference is that you will be sleeping under canvas instead of in a concrete box (with horrible recycled air flowing around)
All you need to do is park your car, unload your luggage, and explore the stunning surroundings.
With breathtaking views of the mountains, an abundance of Australian Wildlife, and spacious powered or unpowered caravan sites with modern facilities, we offer the perfect caravan Park experience for your Halls Gap visit with a very warm welcome!

We stayed in the luxury family Safari tent and loved it! Super comfy bed, our girls loved the bunk beds, and everything just had a great quality feel about it. Limited cooking options (just a microwave and BBQ) but we got by with that.
Was a very short walk to the beach, and the pool/slides/cafe/bar were great.
Also, staff were really friendly - thank you, Colin!
Only thing to note is that although the park is very dog friendy, the beach right out front is not - so if we wanted to take the dog for a run on the beach, we had to drive to Patches Beach which is around 15 minute drive away.

Weekend Trip to Trickling Waters Retreat
Do not hesitate to book time here at Trickling Waters. We spent two nights in the glamping tent and it was simply amazing. Everything you need to stay off grid in ‘luxury’ is provided. Separate, personal shower block away 20m from the living space. The spacious tent boast full size fridge, kettle, toaster and microwave with a full comfortable queen size bed. Full power provided for devices and any other accessory you bring with you (we had a coffee machine). Off grid with no access to internet is perfect with the site next to your ‘own’ water hole with water cascading from the upper creek into your water hole as it meanders further down the property. The firepit sits next to the creek and is the cherry on top to this idyllic location. Cooking on the BBQ with the sink next to it to clean up after a meal on the deck before sitting back in o relax to the sound of running water and the local bird life. Beautiful way to spend a weekend without worrying about set up and break down but still bedding down under a tent away from the busyness of life. We highly recommend staying here as you are well looked after by the owners and their exceptional accomodation.

This glamping spot is truly one of the most beautiful places we’ve stayed. We were so pleasantly surprised by how thoughtfully Kat had provided everything needed for a luxurious camping experience.
Having power in the tent was a huge bonus, along with the large fridge, microwave, and fan. The fire being all set up and ready to go was such a lovely extra touch. The creek is absolutely stunning, surrounded by lush green grass, and the setting feels very private and peaceful.
The shower was amazing, and honestly, everything was just perfect. We would highly recommend this special place and will definitely be back.
Thank you, Kat, for making our stay so special. Your communication and the effort you put into creating Trickling Waters Glamping was truly exceptional.

Loved the “luxury swag” vibe at Ballina Beach Nature Resort! We stayed after a long road trip and it was exactly what we needed — minimalist, functional, yet cozy and comfortable with all the creature comforts. The amenities were spotless and well maintained. The water park was a big hit with my son, and having the beach just a short walk away made it even better. A perfect mix of nature, comfort, and family-friendly fun. Highly recommend! 🌊✨

This glamping tent at Trickling waters was the most peaceful and calm place I’ve been in a long time. There really is a trickling stream! The buzz at dusk is a strange kind of deafening too (frogs, crickets, cicadas). I needed a place to decompress over the holidays and this place did not disappoint. All the privacy I needed but the hosts were just an inbox away if I needed anything at all. To top it off this place is dog friendly and the creek was a perfect cool off for mine!

1 night at Jarabin on the Murrumbidgee
Jara II is the ultimate rural getaway. Located about 70 km from Canberra along the Hume Highway towards Melbourne, it’s a place I can easily see becoming very popular for Canberrans looking to escape the city.
We were fortunate enough to stay just one night while passing through from Queensland to Victoria, and I truly wish we’d booked longer. I’d say a minimum of two nights is ideal, and four would be amazing — there’s so much to explore in the region, yet simply sitting back and watching life drift by would be just as rewarding.
Ben, the host, has provided absolutely everything you could want. His attention to detail and the small luxury touches are second to none. There’s another bungalow identical to Jara II a discreet distance away — close enough that two groups could book both and stay connected, yet far enough to ensure complete privacy.
Down the hill beside the river is a large, flat paddock where Ben hosts campers in caravans, tents and the like. It’s an impressive spot in its own right, right next to a beautiful flowing river. While we were there, a group in canoes paddled by, taking on the gentle rapids.
My wife found time to meditate on the hill, taking in the bird calls, while Ben’s cows wandered past — just as curious about us as we were about them.
And the nights… oh, the nights. A sky full of stars, the kind you can only see in places like this, while sitting around a cosy fire.
I’ll be dreaming about coming back to this majestic place.

Where to go
New South Wales
New South Wales has a bit of everything that makes Australia such a great place to camp. Hipcampers can choose from snow-covered mountains, beaches, rainforest, and Outback plains—you can always find a good camping spot in NSW.
Queensland
Australia’s favourite place to escape the cold, the white-sand beaches north and south of Brisbane in southeast Queensland are warm enough to swim in all year-round. It may be too wet in summer to camp comfortably in the rainforest of Cairns, the Tropical North, and along the Great Barrier Reef, but winter is the best time to swim in the sea. The Outback, too, is at its best in the cooler months.
South Australia
A wild, dramatic, and mostly deserted coastline, South Australia’s rugged outback ranges and fantastic wine are just a few reasons to pitch a tent or park your caravan here. It may not always be swimming weather (the ocean waters are cold), but the beach camping here is some of the best in Australia.
Tasmania
Any time's a good time to visit Tasmania, a place that will delight intrepid Hipcampers with its wild and remote national parks and camping sites. You'll need a warm sleeping bag and good wet weather gear, as it can snow on the peaks near Hobart even in summer. But don't let a little dampness put you off, because it rains here all the time, which is why the World Heritage wilderness areas are so beautifully lush.
Victoria
Just down the road a bit from Melbourne, Victoria’s Great Ocean Road is a bucket-list road trip that lives up to the hype, with some of the best coastal camping areas around. Hiking and camping in the Grampians is good year-round, although the snow-covered high country peaks and the east coast national parks are best saved for the warmer months.
Western Australia
Western Australia is huge, so don’t expect to see it all in a couple of weeks. Let the weather be your guide and explore the coastal national parks, forests, wineries, and beaches south of Perth during the hot, dry summer, then head north to Broome and the Kimberley for a 4WD camping adventure in winter, when it rarely rains.
Northern Territory
When the wintertime chills hit the south, the Northern Territory is the place to be, especially if you’re fond of campervan road trips. The deserts of the Red Centre offer warm, fly-free days and cold nights ideal for gathering around the campfire. Kakadu National Park and the Top End are hot and dry—perfect for swimming.
