1 night at Mountview Farm Stay and Poodles

Awesome place for the kids! Friendly animals and hosts.

2 nights at Larapinta

Excellant 4x4 camping. Cool facilities- you have to try the outside shower shed you won’t regret it.

1 night at Mount Surround Campground

Took our Ford and rooftop tent and used this place as a rest area. Camp was beautiful and quiet. Fellow neighbours and care takers were lovely. Lots of room to have privacy. Bathrooms clean we parked right near the water so I would recommend to bring your mozzie spray. Great bird watching aswell saw lots of kingfisher birds swooping around for there dinner.

1 night at Hold It Flats

We pulled up to a beautifully manicured property with a view of the river and took up the added extra of having a load of washing, washed and dried and delivered back to us on the same day for $15. Katie-Ann was accommodating and helpful and the property was beautiful. We swam in the river, and they also have toilets and showers. Would highly recommend this property.

Another perfect trip to Dunblane. David is so attentive with text regarding arrival & weather. The experience is a working station, the baths are a treat. We appreciate that it is just that a working station with a tourist touch.

3 nights at Hold It Flats

We loved camping in our caravan on a grassed river front site. The grounds are beautifully kept and the hot showers and flushing toilets were very clean and tidy. I loved all the firepits scattered around for guests use. We will definitely be back, we loved our stay.

2 nights at River Run Farm Camping

Camped near river, which is fantastic. I would recommend this farm camp.

2 nights at Hold It Flats

It was so serene and peaceful. Beautiful camp grounds and facilities. If you want peace and quiet out of the rat race then this is definitely the place to be....

1 night at Creek and Antique Camping

Not far off the highway, yet so quiet, and the creek is beautiful for swimming, kayaking etc.

2 nights at Bares Hideaway

2 nights at OZ SKY RANCH

Amazing, beautiful, peaceful and the lake was nice to swim in even in Autumn. Lisa the host is lovely also. Highly Recommend

2 nights at Mount Surround Campground

We thoroughly enjoyed our camping experience at Mount Surround. We camped right on the dam edge and even went for a kayak in the large dam. The bird life was incredible to watch. The amenities were older but kept clean. Cathy was very warm, friendly and helpful with information about the area. A very easy day trip to Townsville. Only downside were the bugs on sunset, so make sure to take bug spray. Thank you for a lovely place to stay.

1 night at River Run Farm Camping

Great space to camp. Perfect for families with kids. Flat grassy sites, swings galore, great kitchen and amenities and the animals were a hit as was the dam. I recommend you check it out.

We had a great stay camped beside a shearing shed and watching an awesome sunset from our artesian springwater tubs. Finished the night with a campfire provided. A hot shower, toilet and power provided. A lovely night in the bush.

Weekend Trip to River Run Farm Camping

Beautiful farm stay. So much to do, especially for the kids and Shelly is an amazing host. We loved it and will be back for sure.

Weekend Trip to Mount Surround Campground

We've stayed here a few times before & are always happy with our stay at this dog friendly, Mount Surrounds hipcamp. Beautiful scenery with plenty of wildlife to see - Wallabies, Kangaroos, Lizards & lots of bird life. Lots of camping spots on the spacious open grounds or lakeside to choose from. Well manicured grounds with plenty of room to spread out & enjoy the relaxing space. Clean amenities block, laundry & camp kitchen available. We always feel welcomed during our stay & leave feeling relaxed & already planning our next visit out here. Thanks Cathy & Wayne.

Weekend Trip to OZ SKY RANCH

My stay at Oz Sky Ranch was a perfect escape from the city! I pitched my swag on a spacious, well-kept site with a great fire pit and a short walk to bathrooms tucked out of sight. Lisa was great, super friendly and clear with directions for property access. The clear nights were unreal, with stars lighting up the sky. Watching an ultralight aircraft take off from the paddock runway one afternoon was a highlight! I’ll definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to River Run Farm Camping

We were on site 35 & 36 riverfront. The areas were large with an on the ground camp fire area each. You need a 4wd to get down to these sites. Site 36 was not good for solar as it was tree covered. It was lovely & quiet & peaceful. You need to be self contained down on riverfront. Otherwise a 500m walk to toilets up a gravel hill. Would come again.

Weekend Trip to River Run Farm Camping

Huge sites and great facilities. Saturday night was very busy but it was a long weekend in the Fraser Coast so I should have known that it Would be busy. Sunday night was pure bliss, so peaceful And lovely at River Run Farm.

Camping in Queensland guide

Overview

It’s easy to find a camping spot to suit any interest in a state as large as Queensland. With 7,000 km of Pacific Ocean coastline and a richly diverse interior of everything from ancient rainforests to arid outback landscapes, you'll find plenty of options. Choose from some 1,000 national parks, forests and other protected areas, and a host of other camping sites. From the golden beaches and green hinterland of the Gold Coast in the south to the rugged loneliness of Cape York to the north, and the extraordinary Great Barrier Reef offshore, campers are spoiled for choice.

South East Queensland

With the state capital Brisbane as your starting point, head to Queensland’s first National Park, Lamington National Park (established in 1915), for cooler climes and ancient Gondwana rainforests. The south-east’s subtropical climate means lots of sunshine, perfect for any camping trip.

Cairns and the Great Barrier Reef

Cairns

is the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef, with island and mainland camping to suit all, with a choice of 19 National Parks. Don flippers and snorkel and hit the water, explore the 165-million-year-old

Daintree

Rainforest, or head inland to the wonders of

Undara Volcanic National Park

to camp near ancient lava tubes.

Sunshine Coast

Living up to its name, the Sunshine Coast basks in its many natural attractions, from 100km of beaches to forested hinterland. Spot koalas in Noosa National Park, take a kayak up-river to camp in the Noosa Everglades, or head north along the beach in the Great Sandy National Park. The volcanic peaks of the Glass House Mountains National Park offer hikers and climbers a challenge.

Whitsundays

From Airlie Beach, take off for the green islands of Whitsunday Islands National Park or stick to the coast, exploring Conway National Park, where you may be joined by rock wallabies. Despite its holiday atmosphere, it’s easy to get away from it all. The best islands for hiking and camping are Whitsunday Island and Hook Island.

Southern Great Barrier Reef Region

Straddling the Tropic of Capricorn, this somewhat under-rated region has much to offer. Visit in summer for turtle nesting and hatching at Mon Repos Conservation Park, or head offshore to Lady Elliot Island. The main towns are Bundaberg and Gladstone, but it’s worth checking out the coastal villages of Agnes Water and 1770 or heading inland to explore the trails and gorges of the spectacular Carnarvon National Park.
