Anduramba 4WD & Adventure Bike Stopover is situated on a 320 acre property south of Blackbutt. We offer self contained bush camping, with the campsite on top of a hill with views to the north and west. It's rough and remote with limited facilities, so it's not for everyone. Most people who stay usually fall into one of 2 categories -
- 4WD'ers or adventure bike riders who would rather camp overnight in the bush instead of at a caravan park or pub
- People who just want a weekend away in the bush with some mates, chilling round a fire with a few drinks
If either of those sound like you, we think you'll love it here!
There's 2 options to choose from - you can book the campsite only, or the cabin which is located at the same spot.

- Portaloo (flushing) + drop toilet (non flushing)

Namaste Farm
10 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents100 acres · Pie Creek, QLD
This farm have been used as a working farm for around 40 years. This area is where the government planned a dam so generally we have water in the creeks.
The house was the original Amamoor Head Ranger, Forestry division, home which was cut in two and relocated from town
up to the top of our hill. From here during the bush fire season you can see fires from Widgee, Kilcoy or the Sunshine Coast. We run on solar and rain water for everything in the house and creek or dam water for our orchards and gardens.
We run a variety of animals and several small orchards as well. Our creek runs into another near this causeway which leads to lots of water in a short time where it sounds like you are living on a beach. Always check with us beforehand if there has been heavy rain and there are several creeks in this area which leads to a rapid build up of water in a short time over many of the causeways out here. When there is water around, the creek will have lots of little fish and a large variety of frogs, some very weird looking ones to study.
While there are many animals on the farm, there are also wild animals who use it as their home and refuge
so your pets
must be kept safe with you
at night.
Swimming pool on the farm can be used if requested through booking.

The Croft Horse Trax Oz Blackbutt
11 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents5 acres · Blackbutt North, QLD
Welcome to Blackbutt and the South Burnett Region. We are open again for horse riding and hiking adventures. Camping and relaxing in Blackbutt - The Gateway to the South Burnett.
Known for the fantastic outdoor recreation opportunities such as the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail and the Bicentennial National Trail both are easily accessible from the property and the Blackbutt trails network 400m up the road.
This is a basic outdoor camping experience in the rural residential suburb of Blackbutt North. The HIPCAMP campsites are on a 5 acre block set within 17 acres surrounded by bush blocks. Even though there is heaps of camping space, I have limited the bookings to only 2 powered sites at a time and one unpowered site. The unpowered site can be anywhere on my property. I do also cater for group bookings up to 10 people if it is a horse riding group - but this requires 2 weeks notice and additional fee for hire of toilet facility).
I do this for a couple of reasons. First and foremost however, is that I live here for a reason. To enjoy peace and quiet. I want this for those who visit here and I want also to have my peace and quiet even if you are camping! That means no loud music - no blaring lights in my face and no parties! This might sound really boring to some. Well that means you can camp somewhere else. It is about nature, peace and restfulness for everyone. I will do my very best to ensure that you have a peaceful and relaxing time without a heap of other people around.
If you want a big camping experience, loud conversations, music and lots of lights that mimic HONG KONG, then maybe the Blackbutt Showgrounds is the place for you.
At the Croft you have a few locations to access power. So the sites are varied depending on your needs. Electricity is provided and there is access to drinking water, a composting toilet, fridge and COLD shower in the shed. Self contained however is preferred with a convenient 'dump' site near the showgrounds in town for you to use on your way to your next destination. There is access to rubbish facilities.
Breakfast hampers are also available to add to your booking as well as camp oven dinners that you could get on the first night and have sandwiches the rest of the weekend!
Horse riders are the main visitors to The Croft as there are safe horse yards and water. Please bring enough feed for them or drop into the Blackbutt Hardware on the way and support our local small businesses. If you bring your own horse and an experienced rider you can book a guided tour or find your way along to the Forestry or to the Bicentennial National Trail which is just a short ride away.
Check out the extras if you need a guide for your trail rides or would like to spend time on the obstacle trail course. Green horse trail ride training also available.
No loud groups please as this is adjacent to my home and peace and quiet is why I live here. Non smokers ONLY.
Other than that please enjoy the space and time away in a very quiet part of the world. There are also lots of birds on the block including kingfishers, wrens, finches and lots more. There is a billabong style dam which horses are most welcome to play in.
Pets on leashes welcome as the grounds are fenced but dogs will need to be watched as there are horses on site. The entire 5 acres I have allocated to you my Hipcampers - is dog fenced and if you are here alone they can run free. Note that this is bush - you need to ensure your dogs have tick protection.
I hope this explains The Croft for you and I look forward to seeing you soon!
