At Wildwoods you'll find 330 acres of natural bushland and a small amount of cleared farmland/paddocks with incredible views in every direction. Endless gullies, mountains, forests, cliffs, and caves to explore on the property or on the crown land adjoining. An amazing amount of wildlife - Birds, wombats, kangaroos of all kinds (wallaby, wallaroo, eastern greys etc), goannas, echidnas, turtles, ducks just to name a few. There are also plenty of roads to ride and explore via mountain bike or foot. This is the perfect place for those who want to be in total peace and quiet, surrounded by nature and wildlife. Each campsite is private, where by you're the only camper able to book the site. Some are more private than others - Read each description for details. *Please note* access to the property is via Megalong Road - a narrow windy road, the only road in and out of Megalong Valley. Google maps can sometimes show options through Kanimbla Valley - This is not possible. Ensure you come in via Megalong Road.

Rice Flower Camp

100%
(116)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 12 · Vehicles under 10 m
The Rice Flower campsite is a very secluded and private site, with its own driveway about 500m long out on a ridge. It is surrounded by an array of gum trees, as well as an abundance of native Rice Flowers (Ozothamnus diosmifolius) in the lower canopy. This adds to its complete privacy, but still allows for dappled views to the East and West. You will have this site completely to yourself. The clearing is approximately 30m x 20m, so depending on your tent/van sizes, multiple campers can fit in this area. There is currently no facilities at this site so campers should be self contained. The driveway to the site is narrow and involves some sharp turns. 4WD or AWD is recommended. Confident 2WDers are generally also fine. Confidence is necessary for those driving larger vans to this site.

Ridge Top Camp

100%
(105)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 10 · Vehicles under 12 m
This site is a flat triangle point of a ridge, not far from the property access road. The ground is mostly hard dirt, with a small grass area set back a bit from the view and rocky edge. So, perfect for roof top tents, caravans and camper trailers. But also suitable for tents if you set yourself back from the ridge a bit, or don’t mind hard ground. It is triangular-ish shaped, with the point of the triangle coming to a rocky outcrop with beautiful views. You have this whole site to yourselves with the nearest camp being approx. 200m away, through dappled trees, but is very private. There are no facilities at this campsite and the ground is hard to dig here, so campers should be self contained. The closest camp toilet is located at Paddock Camp, approx 200m walk away. You can expect other campers and Wildwoods farm vehicles driving past this campsite on the gravel private property access trail, set back about 20m behind the camp. For those adventurous, you can explore straight off the rocky outcrop at the ridge point and down in to the beautiful gully below by foot. Here you can find some sandstone cliffs, many wombat holes and lots of wildlife. It is also a very short walk to the top of the cliffs where you can find the Aboriginal grinding grooves.

Paddock Camp

99%
(71)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 12 · Vehicles under 28 m
Paddock Camp is set in a large sloping grass field, with a levelled area for camping on top of the ridge. It is perfect for those who want open sky and space around them. Plenty of room for dogs and or kids to run free across the paddock. And perfect for star gazing. It has dappled views of the cliffs to the N/E, as well as some distant views to the West. The levelled area is approximately 20m x 15m, enough for a caravan, or two if happy to be close. There is a basic composting toilet at this site for campers to use. This toilet is also available for other campers at Wildwoods to use, so will be shared during your stay. This site is easiest to access, about 1km from the main road, along the private dirt road. Suitable for 2WD cars/vans. There is a fire ring for campers use, and you are welcome to collect your own wood from surrounding fallen timber. Any tools equipment used is at your own risk, and only collect fallen timber. There are a few trails and roads around the property which are wonderful to explore, I am happy to explain directions to you on request. The nearest campsites to you are approx. 100m away, across the paddock. And 200m through the trees to a Beyond Bubbles glamping site and another bush camp. With the right orientation, it is still a nicely private site, but not completely secluded like some other sites. Noise levels should be kept low for consideration of other campers. See Rice Flower Camp for complete seclusion and privacy.

Sunset Hill

100%
(50)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 6 · Vehicles under 28 m
Sunset Hill campsite is steep rocky hill with a small mostly flat pad on top, and a larger flat pad at the base of the hill. When you book this site, you book the whole hill - Upper and lower campsite to set up as you prefer. On windy nights, the lower camp is best. The ‘upper campsite’ is a small flat area located on the top of the hill, up a small steep driveway. It has some amazing views, particularly at sunset. This part of the site is not suitable for most trailers or caravans, as it is a tight space with not much room to turn around and steep drops on most sides. Some do drive caravans up here, but expect a steep reverse down. This site is perfect for rooftop tents, or car based camping. It is a rocky, hard ground surface At the bottom of this hill is the ‘lower campsite’ which is a good camp option for those with trailers, vans or just want more space. Position yourself at the bottom of the hill, which still has fabulous views and enjoy the top of the hill for sundowners or similar. The ground underfoot is rocky and hard, so on ground tent camping isn't recommended but stretchers and similar would suit well. The lower campsite has the driveway to Rice Flower camp just in-front of it. (See photo for reference). It is only an access road for this campsite so should still remain quiet. It is just off the internal property road, which also has minimal traffic - You’ll hear a car coming well before you see it, it’s mostly very quiet. But do expect cars coming past, this campsite is one of the closest to the road, but some of the best views in all directions. Self contained is preferred, there are no facilities at this campsite. Fires are permitted within the fire circle, wood can be collected from fallen trees around the site (any equipment used to do so at own risk).

Cliff View

100%
(5)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 4 · Vehicles under 1 m
Cliff View campsite is a small site located on a ridge, opposite The Paddock campsite. It has arguably the best views on the property. It looks to the East to the towering cliffs, as well as to the West for views of the rolling hills and sunset. This site is not suitable for trailers or caravans, as it is a tight space. This site is perfect for rooftop tents, or car based camping. The ground underfoot is quite hard, so on ground tent camping isn't recommended but stretchers and similar would suit well. The road to the campsite involves a steep rocky hill, and travelling across an open paddock with some pot holes and similar. Due to this, AWD or 4WD with clearance is recommended. The campsite looks across to The Paddock camp in the foreground approximately 100m across the open field.

Claudia's directions were spot on, and she also advised us on the best site for our cars & tents. Ground was a bit hard to get tent pegs in, but the view from the site more than made up for it! It also felt very private with the site all to ourselves.

Claudia's place is really lovely, a great get away. From the upper blue mountains, getting to the site in the Megalong is really smooth, and we had just the night we needed to get out and immersed in nature, on a lovely Ridge site, with the full moon coming up and all.

Ridge Top Camp
Claudia's Ridge Top campsite is beautiful, situated on a short ridge, far enough from the access road and other sites to feel very private, but big enough to be enjoyed by a few people or just a smaller group. Its also easy to walk to the ajioning campsite to use the loo. Theres enough trees to offer a shady spot too The best part is the ridge ends in a beautiful rocky outcrop looking west, your own private sunset rock. Thanks Claudia for letting us stay at your beautiful property.

Absolutely lovely spot. Communication with Claudia were very thorough and prompt. The spot was very easy to find and Rice flower camp was very private and quiet. We loved being in the nature and it was such a good palce for that. We did stay only one night so we didnt end up exploring the surroundings but Claudia gave us loads of recommandations of things to do around. Will be back!

Sunset Hill
Loved it in a campervan with my 6 year old. Rough around the edges and no one around, just like we wanted. Sunset Hill site was cleared, but not level, so you’ll need to either try lots of different orientations, or use levelling blocks. Also had lots of little sticks and stones, so tent campers be warned. Woke up to a couple of wallabies cautiously grazing outside the van, and bumped into a couple of cows while exploring the woods. All in all, perfect blend of wild and accessible for us.

Rice Flower Camp
We stayed at Rice Flower in a Jayco Eagle. Good level site. All dirt - a bit tacky (muddy) in the wet but didn’t detract from the site. Really quiet, away from all other sites, in fact, no sites are really that close to each other. Whilst you could get get down there in a full size van, prob prefer not (a few scratches potentially). The terrain would be fine for a tow vehicle, hybrid van, no probs. Definitely recommend.

I loved staying at wildwoods. Claudia was a responsive host and the instructions provided were very clear. The property is beautifully maintained - the access roads were easy to drive on with a caravan, and there is no rubbish around the property. Wildwoods is an excellent base to explore the surrounding area, and a tranquil retreat to return to after a day of exploring. Thank you Claudia! We will be back
