Caravan parks near Broken Hill

Intrepid caravan campers who make the journey to outback Broken Hill, Australia's original mining town, will find holiday parks with electrical hookups and a range of facilities—sometimes even with ensuite bathrooms and swimming pools, both welcome in the dusty desert atmosphere. Broken Hill is a handy stop on a long-distance road trip across Australia's outback, or as a destination in its own right, as it was the country's first Heritage-listed city. See the remnants of old mines or get a dose of Aussie cult pop culture on a Priscilla, Queen of the Desert or Mad Max-themed self-guided tour. Art and nature lovers can hike or drive their caravans and campervans out to the Living Desert Reserve, where 12 sandstone sculptures dot the landscape. The reserve also has exceptionally clear night skies, so keen stargazers might like to find a Broken Hill holiday park nearby.
