Nestled amongst the stunning landscapes of the Southern Flinders Ranges, our bush camp and Canoee’s Realm glamping offer breathtaking views and an immersive experience in native Australian flora and fauna. Enjoy the tranquility of private campsites, each equipped with a fire pit (seasonal) and access to non-potable water, along with the convenience of two full flush toilets.
Ideally located as a hub for exploring the Mid North, you can set off on scenic day trips and return to camp for a sunset dinner by the fire. For those wanting a night off from cooking, the historic Tarcowie Pub is just five minutes down the road, serving cold beers and hearty meals. Whether you’re spotting wildlife at dawn or relaxing under a star-filled sky, this is the perfect escape for nature lovers seeking adventure and tranquility.
Bush campers should come prepared to be self-sufficient. While toilets and non-potable water are available, there are no shower facilities or drinking water provided. However, glampers at Canoee's Realm can enjoy full amenities for a more comfortable stay.

Very quiet. I think I was the only one there.
Poured with rain all night, thunder & lightning and thick fog. So it was like a scene from a scary movie. However, this didn't detract from the serenity and beauty of the surrounds. The birds were singing in the morning. It was just as I expected. I'd go again if I was in the area.

We enjoyed a great stay at Heggies Hill bush camp. Lovely big campsite, terrific toilets and serene surroundings. It was easy to get to and easy to arrange a booking. It is a great spot to stay and explore a range of places and activities in the mid north.

I had a great stay and thank you to Alex for being so positive in opening up his property to motorcycle camping. I had the property to myself and found a great spot to pitch my tent. Campsite 11 had fantastic views across the valley and it was nice to sit back and watch the setting sun. I’ll definitely be planning another adventure.

Funnily we were drawn to the constant comments about how great the toilets were, and to be honest, they were incredible with festoon lights at night.
View was amazing, communication great, highly recommend! just watch the flies in November.

Heggies was so good… Campsites are nicely spaced out so you don’t feel like you’re in each other’s pockets. Toilets were a particularly highlight, it felt like you were doing your business in a Swedish bath house!
I’d highly recommend and hope to be back sooner

I had a great stay in site 1 which looks out to a great view right from the tent. Although a bit further to the pretty splendid bathrooms - it’s a short walk.
Other guests were friendly and respectful of your camp site and were all there to enjoy the nature.

Nice and quiet spot with a fire pit and plenty of privacy. We didn't see or hear a car or other person during our stay - it was awesome to not be packed in like a sardine like in the public camp grounds that you still need to pay to stay at. We will be back!
