The best camping near Berry Springs Nature Park guide

Overview

About

Escaping the sweltering city heat is easy at Berry Springs Nature Park, just a 40-minute drive south of Darwin. Pack your binoculars (this is a bird-watching hotspot), your camera (the woodland trails dazzle with seasonal wildflowers), and your swimsuit (you can swim at the natural pools and creeks) and set out to explore the monsoon forests and wetlands. Berry Springs is the ideal spot for bushwalking and picnicking, but there’s no camping in the park itself. However, campers will find a selection of caravan parks, holiday parks, farm stays, and Hipcamps dotted around nearby Berry Springs and Tumbling Waters.

When to go

Time your visit to Berry Springs for the end of the wet season (March through April), when vibrant wildflowers bloom throughout the woodlands. The park is open daily year-round, but the dry season months of May through September are the best time for swimming—weather conditions often mean that it’s too dangerous to swim during the wet season.

Know before you go

  • Berry Springs Nature Park is set 50 kilometres south of Darwin or about a 40-minute drive along the Stuart Highway. 
  • There’s no admission fee to visit the park.
  • Berry Spring facilities include restrooms, showers, picnic and barbecue areas, a free car park, and a kiosk (open from April to November only). 
  • There are accessible restrooms and picnic areas at Berry Springs Nature Park.
