Rivers Edge is 24 acres of forest on the banks of the Leven River in Gunns Plains, Tasmania. We are in our own little valley surrounded by tall forests. Preston Creek flows all year through our property and meets the large Leven River where your campsite is situated. Perfect for trout fishing, platypus watching, bird watching or catching the sun setting through the trees on the river bend. There are even the endangered black fresh water crayfish. The site is large enough for up to 5-6 caravans for large bookings, and we only take one booking at a time, so its exclusively yours. We are only 20km to the nearest town, Ulverstone which as everything you need. The road is close by the campsite with easy access to find the property. No toilet facilities at the site. Sat TV is good and limited mobile reception. Telstra works best we've found. River access over a rocky, uneven embankment as it's a natural, untouched environment, just how we and the native animals like it. Campfires ONLY PERMITTED when fire restrictions aren't in place. You absolutely must make sure your campfire is fully extinguished before you leave. Please check "My Trips" (in your profile) for directions once confirmed. Look for the 'Rivers Edge' sign on the entrance gate, then you know youve got the right site and not the neigbours property (which is along side mine on the river) Well behaved dogs are welcome but must be kept with you at all times, no roaming dogs as the road is close by. We love the peace and serenity here so please no unruly behaviour or parties.

This naturally forested 100-acre property is a haven for abundant native wildlife, offering an idyllic escape into nature. When you book, you'll secure a site within one of our designated camping areas, with the freedom to choose your exact setup spot upon arrival.

Here, you can set up anywhere within its bounds; pitching your tent among the trees or along the river is perfect for a truly immersive experience.

You'll also find perfect spots for kayaking, along with private river beaches where you can relax, paddle, swim, or enjoy a picnic. Access to the property is via a very scenic 4km, well-maintained gravel road that winds downhill to the base of the valley. Important Information No facilities are provided on-site. Guests must bring their own camping toilet (a dumping point is available in Knights Rd, West Ulverstone) and are responsible for all rubbish removal.

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 😉

33km from Savage River National Park · 2 sites · Tents, RVs · Preolenna, TAS
Camp out on our 25-acre farm and animal sanctuary in the fertile valley of Preolenna, in Tassie's lovely north-west. Here, we grow sunflowers, potatos and other vegetables. We enjoy welcoming guests to camp or to stay in one of our vacation rentals on the property. And guests love staying here! They particularly enjoy the meandering bush walks that lead to lakes and hidden waterfalls. Campers have access to power and excellent sweet and soft well water, as well as toilet facilities. Access for all types of vehicles is good, with plenty of space to turn around. This is a farm animal sanctuary so guests are asked to respect animals by not cooking them here. We appreciate your respect in this regard. Japa Hill makes for a safe base to explore the region, with Boat Harbour just 30 minutes drive away and Cradle Mountain two hours away. The Spirit of Tasmania ferry terminal is just 74 minutes drive away.

Wobbly Gate Estate

36km from Savage River National Park · 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 😉

37km from Savage River National Park · 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.

Our 34-acre property is nestled on the edge of the ancient Tarkine rainforest on the north west coast of Tasmania (approx 1 hour 15 min west of Devonport and the Spirit of Tasmania). At La Bena, you will find a relaxing and quiet place to park and camp, that will give you easy access to our wild surroundings. On the property, we have a short but enchanting bush walk to our local creek (great place for a picnic!) that will take you past some giant man ferns, myrtles, celery top pines, pepper berries, and an assortment of gums and native currents. From 4WD tracks to pristine beaches, we are within a 30-minute drive of a huge range of activities and adventures so numerous options for day trips on your doorstep. Famous Boat Harbour Beach is only a short 15-minute drive away and just beyond that is Sisters Beach which has some great coves and hikes (Anniversary Bay) into Rocky Cape National Park that will take you along the coast to further secluded beaches and some sacred Aboriginal sites. If you head inland from La Bena you will enter the Tarkine Rainforest and travel along some great 4WD tracks that will take you to the Dip River Forest Reserve which has the big tree and Dip Falls - you can then head to Stanley for a meal at Hursey's Seafood and then loop back around to camp (a great day out). The camping area caters to self-contained campers only, so please ensure you have a camp toilet with you, and can take all waste when you go. Please leave no trace.

Andrew, who greeted us on arrival with some of his girls eggs and a load of firewood that lasted our three days and then some if needed, has a delightful spot for enjoying exactly what Tasmania has to offer. The river and yes platypus were spotted, birds, fish and beautiful smells that make relaxation and admiring nature possible. Whilst the weather wasn’t in our favour we still thoroughly enjoyed it and went for bush walks around his property. Close by is wings wildlife park or a little further caves and waterfalls. Loved our stay and thank you for sharing your beautiful spot.

This is one of the best family friendly and well thought out camp grounds we've ever been to on hipcamp. We chose campsite 2 and it was very nice to be able to know our toddler could safely play at the playground/sandpit while we set up and cooked. We had an issue with out bbq on the first day and Aaron came out and helped us solve the issue. We all had lots of fun and are already thinking of coming back again in the future! Thanks again to Aaron and Amanda for hosting this beautiful camp ground.

So quiet, friendly host, platypus in the dam to see at dawn. Lovely walk up the hill. Clean toilets. 15 mins to cradle mountain visitor centre. If towing a van from devonport direction do NOT follow Google through Gunns Plains. It's super steep and unsuitable for vans.

We stayed at campsite 2 for my partners birthday, despite our extremely late arrival the communication between me and the host was constant and clear, he had no issues with us arriving past our previously discussed time. Upon arrival there was a beautiful set up with marshmallows and a roaster, a sign for my partners birthday and some flowers. We got to set up our tent under beautiful festoon lights strung above, and were also able to prepurchase some firewood to have the pit nice and toasty. We also added the feature of the outdoor cinema, which was a game changer! The host had a lot of movies preloaded onto the usb, and even asked if my partner had a favourite for her birthday. The nearby walks are simply stunning and the waterfall is a short walk around the corner from the campsite. Absolutely stunning location - just be prepared to drive on some loose gravel if you’re in a smaller car! Will absolutely be visiting ladybug campgrounds again! 11/10

The best camping in Savage River National Park, TAS guide

Overview

About

Immerse yourself in the untamed beauty of Savage River National Park, a haven of temperate rainforest and a sanctuary for primitive flora and fauna. Venture into this remote landscape, where the absence of roads and facilities preserves its wild character. Although there are no campgrounds within the park, the surrounding reserves offer a glimpse into the unique ecosystems of this pristine wilderness.

When to go

The best time to visit Savage River National Park is during the milder months of summer and autumn, when the weather is more conducive to exploring the rugged terrain. Winter and spring can be challenging due to harsh conditions, making access difficult and potentially hazardous.

Know before you go

  • Ensure you have a valid parks pass before entering the national park.
  • Prepare for a true wilderness experience; there are no visitor facilities within the park.
  • Check for any alerts or safety information prior to your visit, including bushfire and biosecurity warnings.
  • Respect the Aboriginal heritage of the area and all cultural sites.
  • Access to the park is limited; consider a 4WD vehicle for nearby reserves and drive cautiously to protect native wildlife.
