Welcome to big sky country. Sky Camp is a family owned lifestyle property on the North West Slopes of the Great Divide, NSW, Australia. Once part of a large land holding stretching from Bonshaw to Yetman on the NSW/QLD border, Sky Camp forms part of the Atholwood community, which has a population of around 89. The area is known for its cattle grazing and gold prospecting, as well as its rugged terrain and beautiful native timbers. Today the property, hosted by David and Gail and their four children, runs a mixture of wilderness retreat experiences, cattle, horse, sheep and goat farming and also produces organic Mediterranean carob (Ceratonia siliqua). Visitors to Sky Camp can enjoy hands on small scale farm experiences with our beef and dairy cattle, goats, horse riding and Carob harvesting. We also offer nomadic bush camping, bush walking and wildlife experiences, or a swim in one of our billabongs and watering holes. For those wanting a little more comfort we have a modern, offgrid 50+ couples cabin with full amenities. Sky Camp is a home for, kangaroos, wallaroo's, echidnas, goanna's, emus and more. Popular among photographers, artists, couples and families, Sky Camp can also provide camping gear and equipment for first timers who are looking for a rugged tree change experience or retreat. Sky Camp is situated around 30 minutes from the historic town of Texas. Nearby attractions include Goat Rock, McIntyre Falls, the Severn and Dumeresq River (Ideal for Murray Cod and Silver Perch fishing) and the Severn State Forest for those wanting to do a little wild pig, goat or roo hunting.
