The best great views camping in Victoria

Name: Victoria
Address: Victoria
Rating: 4.906499999999999

There are so many ways to go wild in Victoria. Fall asleep to the boom of the surf from your beachfront campsite, drive one of the world's most scenic coastal roads, glamp it up in the middle of a vineyard, or touch the sky in the snow-capped high country. If it's animal encounters you like, you'll love the penguin parade on Phillip Island and dolphin swims in Port Phillip Bay, as well as the chance to see koala colonies, mobs of kangaroos, and platypus-filled streams. Plus, the bonus to Victoria is that nowhere is more than a day's drive from Melbourne—many of the best campsites are only a few hours drive from the city—so you can cram a lot of fun into a relatively short amount of time.

Balmattum, VIC · 19 sites · Tents, RVs

Camp beside the peaceful waters of Faithfulls Creek on our private 700-acre regenerative cattle farm in the beautiful Strathbogie Ranges, just outside Euroa. Glenmaye is a quiet valley property where campsites are well spaced and surrounded by nature. Granite hills rise above the valley and over 500 acres of wilderness bushland stretch out behind the farm, creating a peaceful setting that feels more like a private nature reserve than a campground. A favourite activity for guests is the short bush walk along the creek to Marraweeny Falls, where water cascades over granite rocks into a beautiful natural pool. Along the creek you’ll also find several swimmable waterholes that are perfect for cooling off on warm days. Wildlife is abundant around Glenmaye. Kangaroos and wallabies are often seen grazing in the valley at dusk, while kookaburras, parrots and other native birds provide the soundtrack to the day. At night the property enjoys incredibly dark skies, making it a wonderful place to sit by the campfire and watch the stars. Our campsites are spread out to give guests privacy and space. They are suitable for tents, camper trailers, vans and some caravans depending on the site, with a mix of easy-access areas and more secluded bush camps. Whether you prefer camping beside the creek, under the trees, or out in the open paddock with big skies overhead, each site offers a slightly different experience. Guests are welcome to explore the property on foot using old farm tracks and bush paths that wind through the hills and granite outcrops. For those who enjoy a short climb, the granite hills above the valley offer beautiful views across the farm and surrounding countryside, especially in the golden light of late afternoon. Glenmaye is a working farm and a natural bush property. With abundant wildlife and creek environments, guests may occasionally encounter snakes or leeches, particularly near the water, so normal bush precautions such as wearing sturdy footwear are recommended. If you’re looking for a peaceful place to camp, swim in natural waterholes, explore bush tracks and enjoy quiet nights under the stars, Glenmaye offers a truly authentic High Country camping experience.

The property is 600 acres of thick Victorian bush and farmed paddocks. We have a wide range of hobby farm animals - pigs, sheep, alpacas, chickens, ponies, a donkey, along with commercial heard of South African Boer Goats. As night falls, the wildlife come out to play - kangaroos, rabbits, deer and wallabies. Internally, we have in excess of 10 kilometers of roads within the property, the majority being 2WD accessible (weather conditions apply). There are parts of the property which are only 4WD accessible. Our campsites are placed to allow you to be as isolated as possible - away from other campers (you may see others as you drive past, or they drive past you). At some of our bush sites, you will be able to see other campers, but they are not close by. Additionally, we anticipate our Fire Danger Period for the 2025/2026 Summer Season will commence in the coming weeks. We have not toggled the Fire Ban on as we do still allow campfires, however campers MUST adhere to CFA guidelines at all times. On days of Total Fire Ban (TFB), no fires, including gas stoves can be lit outdoors. In event of the TFB toggle needing to be used on Hipcamp, this will advise all guests booked on that day and to all future guests. We will toggle it off once the TFB is removed. Furthermore, we reserve the right to ask you not to light a fire regardless of TFB status if we feel weather conditions are unsafe, especially the wind element. We cannot plan the weather and the request to not light your campfires will most likely be on the day and we will advise as such. Our interest is with your safety, our neighbors and our property and our family.

We stayed on the eagleview site in our rooftop tent. Was amazing spot with awesome views. We hiked to the beautiful waterfall and up some other steep hills including an amazing boulder overlooking our campsite where we sat and drank wine while watching the sunset. Had a cosy campfire and stargazed all night. Was private and serene and was a much needed getaway. Would recommend to anyone wanting a getaway. We only stayed one night but it was well worth the drive from Melbourne.

The views are amazing and it's nice and peaceful. Booked it short notice and the host was very responsive to any questions. Only just over an hour from Melbourne so it was ideal for one night. Fire pits available and fire wood can be found around the ground from felled trees etc. It's a bit pricey but acceptable if you're not by yourself.

Weekend Trip to The Fern Glade

We were at Site 1 and it was spectacular! Lots of space, firepit with grill plates, bbq, and picnic table were super handy as well as being a stone's throw away from the drinking water. Toilet block was a short stroll. We had a wombat friend visit over night, and flame robins all over camp during the day. We marvelled at the wedge-tailed eagles and king parrots the whole weekend. The river was stunning but safe and secured by a gate which was handy for us camping with toddlers. We even had a picnic up the hill by the loveseat which had stunning views and was well worth the hike. Such an awesome place! Thanks Michael.

Fantastic location, we had a campsite just on the water and it was so peaceful listening to the water in the morning. We went in Autumn and it was beautiful seeing the coloured leaves. We visited the local wineries and breweries. The hot shower was great after a bike ride.

Weekend Trip to Mountain Flower Farm

We camped our 24’6 ft caravan on site 1 at Mountain Flower Farm, there was plenty of space on the site to set up as we wanted. We were fully self contained but there is a compost toilet a short walk away and water if you needed it. The property is well maintained and each site has a fire pit for use. The kids loved feeding the sheep and goats and my son loved riding his bike down the hill! Tamara was very responsive and helpful. There were some flowers in bloom, but not quite in season, would be lovely to see them in full bloom. Our rig is very long, and it was a tight turn into the driveway, but we got in okay. We also came up the C764, which was not recommended for heavy vehicles (with good reason, very narrow windy, and steep roads) Came home B300 which was not as narrow! It was a lovely place to stay, would recommend 😊

Weekend Trip to Buffalo River Retreat

We stayed at the Riverside Camp site and loved it. Amazing views of the river. Lots of space for our 2 dogs to enjoy. Very peaceful with sounds of the river rapids. Ian and Patrick were fantastic to deal with. Couldn’t ask for more. We have no doubt that we will return one day. A real stand out camping spot.

Great location easy to access. Friendly and helpful hosts. Lovely river spot with fire pit. Plenty of hot water, clean facilities. Highly recommend staying here. Close to Plenty of tourist type activities and great food options. Lots of roaming dogs from other camps caused an issue for us in our camp.

Victoria camping guide

Where to go

Great Ocean Road

The Great Ocean Road west of Melbourne is one of the world's great scenic road trips, but there’s much more to see and do than snapping a selfie at the Twelve Apostles rock stacks. Zipline above the rainforest in Great Otway National Park, climb lighthouses, watch whales, surf iconic Bells Beach, and pitch a tent on any one of several beachside camping areas. Road tripping doesn't get much better than this.

Gippsland and the Bays

Gippsland stretches east of Melbourne to the sea and north to the border with NSW. Most of the coastline is protected by a string of national parks with fantastic seaside camping spots and holiday parks—and camping at Wilsons Promontory (locals just call it the Prom) on the mainland’s southernmost tip is a must-do at least once. This is also where you’ll find Phillip Island, home to the famous nightly penguin parade.

The Victorian Alps

The High Country is the place to go for winter snow sports and summer mountain bike trails, plus bushwalking. If that sounds too energetic, it’s also home to the Great Alpine Road, one of Australia's best food and wine touring routes (and yes, the scenery is pretty good too).

The Grampians

In the state's west, the Grampians are another mountain playground with a network of bushwalking trails, from quick 2-hour walking tracks to 3-day hikes in the Grampians National Park. This is also where campers can find the highest concentration of Indigenous art in the state. Opt for bush camping sites in the national park or more luxurious campsites at Halls Gap or Dunkeld caravan parks.

Murray Riverlands

Australia's longest river, the mighty Murray forms most of the border with NSW to the north, and all along its length are great beachfront campsites from where you can go for a swim or paddle a kayak, catch a fish, or sit back and watch the world glide by. Elsewhere in the riverlands, ride a restored paddle steamer at Echuca, take a cruise through the largest river red gum forest in the world at Barmah, and dine out in the foodie hot spot of Mildura.
