Getting Away Camp

Approximately 45 minutes from Orange, 4 hours from Sydney. The region between Molong and Parkes offers scenic views, bush walking, bush camping, picnic areas, mountain biking trails, and 4WD touring. To the northwest lies Goobang National Park that includes Caloma lookout, one of the high points in the Wanda Wandong sector of Goobang National Park. 

The area is a bird watchers' paradise - you can often spot birds of prey, such as wedge-tailed eagles, brown goshawks and brown falcons, soaring across the sky. Black cypress pines, grevilleas, lomandras and heath feature commonly on the landscape. There are many tall grass trees in this area too, some of which are believed to be hundreds of years old.

This is a large property that is taking a break from sheep farming. Covered in gum trees and pines and lots of open space. The property has a creek with all year round water holes and dams. You can do almost anything you want. Hiking, fishing, swimming, camping and living the dream. 

There's emus (bush chooks), kangaroos (hopping dogs), platypus and no drop bears, meaning you can sit back, relax and go back to the way it was. 

Self sufficient campers only, leave no trace. You must bring your own camping toilet and shower.

If booking under the Group listing, you will need to arrange you own portaloos, which I am happy to manage delivery/pick up of with the local hire company. 

It's 15 minutes to the pub in town if you're up for a coldie or a meal.

​Our farm is a work in progress.

Wendouree Creek Camp

Wendouree Creek Paddock, situated near Parkes in New South Wales, is a vibrant regeneration area perfect for those seeking a true off-grid camping experience. This tranquil site invites nature enthusiasts to immerse themselves in the wonders of the outdoors, but it's important to note that it is specifically designed for self-sufficient campers who bring their own toilets and showers. The paddock does not provide any facilities, making it essential for visitors to come prepared with their own off-grid amenities.

As you explore the landscape, you'll find various native flora and fauna thriving in their natural habitat. The gentle sounds of the creek and the rustling leaves create a soothing backdrop, perfect for relaxation and reflection. Unique artistic installations, such as creatively designed bird feeders made from recycled materials, add a whimsical touch to the environment while supporting local wildlife.

Visitors are encouraged to adhere to a "leave as you found it" ethos, ensuring that Wendouree Creek Paddock remains pristine for future generations to enjoy. This serene setting offers a unique opportunity to reconnect with nature and foster a deeper appreciation for environmental conservation.
