🌿 Wild Pine Haven – Private Forest

4. 🌿 Wild Pine Haven – Private Forest

18km from Wynyard · 1 site · Tent · Yolla, TAS
Tucked high above the Cam River, this 177-acre hideaway is part ancient native rainforest, native eucalypyt and radiata pine plantation – the perfect mix of wild Tasmania and peaceful seclusion. The adventure starts the moment you arrive. Drop your pack, breathe in the pine-scented air, and pitch your tent on the flat, shady clearings beside our rustic amenities shed. Golden light filters through the canopy, wallabies bounce past at dusk, and the only soundtrack is birdsong and the crackle of your own private campfire. Feeling energetic? Lace up your boots for the legendary “Giant Fern Track” – a heart-pumping descent down an old logging trail straight out of Jurassic Park. At the bottom, massive tree ferns (some 60+ years old) form a cool, green cathedral beside the rushing Cam River. It’s steep, it’s wild, and it’s 100 % worth it. (Fit walkers only – this is the real Tassie bush experience!) Perfect stop-over or weekend reset Just 20–25 mins from Burnie What’s here for you: ✔ Shady, level tent sites (room for swags, rooftop tents) ✔ Rustic amenities shed with table, and free dry firewood ✔ Cosy fire pit for permitted nights (check fire rules here: https://www.fire.tas.gov.au/) ✔ Star-filled skies and zero light pollution ✔ Peace, privacy, and the sound of the forest breathing Important – this is off-grid bliss: Please be fully self-contained (bring your own portable toilet & take ALL waste with you). Leave-no-trace is the vibe – we want this magic to stay magic. Ready to swap city noise for towering trees and fern-filled adventures? Book now and wake up in your own slice of Tasmanian wilderness.

Wobbly Gate Estate

5. Wobbly Gate Estate

18km from Wynyard · 8 sites · Lodging · Yolla, TAS
Welcome to Wobbly Gate Estate! This is glamping with a side of real camping in the Tasmanian bush. Goats and sheep will stroll around and you have over 20 acres all to yourself to explore. We're located up a gravel road on the northwest coast, you won't find any other tourists here. Soak in the woodfired tub, under the blackwood tree. Cosy up to the wood fire, roasting marshmallows in your star Gazer yurt. A comfy queen bed and a backyard of adventure, it's a Tasmanian version of luxury camping. Our Yurt location is known as The Top Paddock - A Little Inside Information: Well in my opinion (and a few others) I am Living The Dream! I started living here permanently seven years ago, most of the property's out dwellings and the Cabin is built from recycled, reclaimed materials or been handed down. I am fully off the grid and in the process of trying to become self-sufficient. The water is pumped from a springfed dam and mostly gravity-ed. It's a little like McDonald's Farm, an array of birds and animals. There's an orchard, hothouse and a Raspberry patch which may be my favourite spot when they're fruiting. It really is an amazing lifestyle, peaceful, relaxing and rewarding. You should come see for yourself 😉
