The best luxury caravan parks in Snowy Mountains

Affectionately dubbed "The Snowies," the Snowy Mountains and its surrounding sub-region is home to the highest mountain range on the mainland, encompassing five of the nation’s tallest peaks. While the region is best known for its skiing and snowboarding opportunities, of which there are plenty, it's also a great place to visit in the summer months. Popular fair-weather activities include fishing, mountain biking, bushwalking, and spelunking, and many people visit the region specifically to visit the summit of Mount Kosciuszko, accessible by chairlift or on foot via the Mount Kosciuszko Summit Walk. It's also a great place to camp, snow or shine, with plenty of campgrounds, cabins, and more than a few caravan parks.

The Thowgla Hall is a community-run hall in the heart of the beautiful Thowgla Valley. Only 5km from Corryong, its location is the perfect quiet camping spot to get away from the crowds in town during the Man From Snowy River Festival. We are also conveniently located very close to the reenactment site, so you can get up there early to grab the best seats. The camping area is located in a beautiful, level paddock behind the hall, with a huge amount of space, scattered gumtrees, and stunning views. You will have full use of our newly renovated full kitchen, toilets, baby change table, and hot showers. You're also welcome to use our picnic area and fire pit! Please note, we allow one vehicle per site. If you are two groups traveling together (two caravans, two campers etc) we ask that you please make two separate bookings. Only one 'set up' is permitted per site. We also have a two-night minimum stay requirement. Well-behaved four-legged friends are welcome, please keep them within your site and clean up any little messes they may do :).

Weekend Trip to Rainbow Pines Tourist Park

We booked a powered site (#5) and stayed in our own campervan. The site itself was on a slope which made it a bit challenging to level off. They have bbq facilities, toilets and heated showers, laundry, dry room, family room with a bath, communal fire pits around the property and a boat ramp. They are dog friendly as well. The lake is at 40% capacity at the moment and you can see how far the water had retreated. The views are amazing and it was lovely to learn a bit about the local history. Lots of great fishing spots as well as walking spots

Great place to stay. Plenty of space and the kitchen is amazing. It is fully stocked with oven, microwave and fridge as well as cutlery and crockery. There were a couple of broken locks in the amenities but nothing major.

Great camp site, the sunsets were beautiful. Facilities were great and considering The Man from Snowy Rivet was on, it wasn’t too crowded. Definitely will come again.

Where to go

The Sydney Area

Cosmopolitan Sydney offers big-city charm and easy access to fantastic beaches and natural areas. While plenty of people come here to dine, shop, and take in the city lights, you won’t need to drive far from the city to find yourself out in nature. Some of the best (and easiest-to-reach) camping areas near Sydney include Lane Cove National Park and Royal National Park, both within a short drive of the Central Business District.

The Blue Mountains

Not far from Sydney, the Blue Mountains offer some of New South Wales's finest scenery, from massive rock formations such as the iconic Three Sisters to the enchanting Jenolan Caves. It's a popular destination for bushwalkers and rock climbers alike and has plenty of campgrounds, from forested spots tucked among gum trees to private wilderness campsites far away from it all.

The South Coast of New South Wales

If you want to get away from the crowds but still wish to spend time near the sea, the South Coast may just be the ticket. Head to Booderee National Park to see wildlife or make your way down to Jervis Bay for a bit of kayaking. Like to surf? Head to Kiama to check out the waves or head south to take in the scenery in nearby Gerringong.

The Hunter Valley

The Hunter Valley is best known for its wineries, and it’s got plenty of them, but even teetotalers will find plenty to do in this lovely region. Highlights include the massive Lake Macquarie, the largest saltwater lake on the coast of Australia, and Mount Royal, which is part of the World Heritage Gondwana Rainforests of Australia.
