The best camping near Paringa

·

The border town of Paringa is proud of being one of the first South Australian towns roadtrippers will pass through when arriving from Victoria—or the last, if going in the other direction. On the banks of the broad, snaking Murray River, there are plenty of riverside holiday parks in Pargina and the larger nearby town of Renmark. Campers wanting a break from the tent can rent house boats here, too. Paringa and Renmark also offer other watersports, including water skiing and wakeboarding. Self-catering campers will also enjoy stocking up on fresh Riverland citrus and stone fruit, as the fertile, well-irrigated region produces a lot of fresh food. Campsites in and around Paringa are typically near pools and rivers, and often have access to boat ramps and playgrounds, for campers travelling with their boats and kids in tow.

I had the best quick night away in Gurra Gurra! The site was peaceful, well shaded in the heat and secluded from other campers. My Jimny parked up right by the river where my dog and I spent the afternoon soaking in the river breeze! An amazing stay and a great host.

Lovely little spot just next to the river. Clean. A few earnest power boat owners but as expected. Quiet at night and no idiot temporary neighbours. My greatest fear with camping.

Amazing views and a great location only 5 minutes from Berri- but still a feeling of isolation. Heaps of wildlife- birds, lizards, fish and occasional visit from the very cute campsite mascot Willow (the dog!). Highly recommended and looking forward to visiting again one day.

Highly recommended! Great, friendly communication, excellent instructions and only 5 minutes from Berri. We have a 12ft hybrid van with high clearance so were able to set up camp right on the bank of the river on the only flat section which was perfect. Bigger, or low clearance vans would need to stay up the top where there is heaps of room. We didn't use the toilet but it's there if you need it. The site is very private and peaceful. Thanks Michelle for having us, can't wait to come back.

The camp was great there is a large flat area for big tents and caravans. There are great areas right on the river that aren't 100% flat. The camp was dog friendly. Fishing is a little difficult as there are a lot of snags but doable. The toilet is a nice touch. Its effective a large compost bin with a nice seat and saw dust to reduce smell. There were no issues using it and it was appreciated. The camp has great signage making it a breeze to find the spots for camp. There is a great campfire area on the river recommend purchasing the firewood from the host. The only thing to note is the area can get dusty with high winds. I highly recommend this camp is very close to Berri and Renmark with all the modern conveniences.

Such a nice and peaceful spot. Beautiful surroundings and the perfect place to spend time by yourself or with family. Michelle, the owner, was really friendly and helpful, she gave me tips on good fishing spots and even offered the rowboat, which made the trip even better. It was also a bonus that her dog came by to visit every day. Highly recommended.

This camp site is easy to find. Michelle is a really lovely host. There is a site that is level for caravans. The camp is secluded and very quiet. There is a lot of birdlife and the views of the stars, sunset and river are all fantastic. What more could you ask for if you are looking to get away from it all, or for a great place to catch your breath if you are on a long trip.

Beautiful easy spot. Perfect for us to set up the double swag by the water, and get in and out of town easily for dinner (as we'd run out of groceries by this point in our trip). So scenic with an incredible sunset, and loved having the no-motor rowboat. Composting toilet was a nice addition.
