Mountain MiniMoos 4WD Bushcamp is located 15 minutes from Maleny in the heart of the Sunshine Coast Hinterland. It features 3 private sites in a spectacular bush setting (and more are coming!). We welcome small groups and their pets and cater to couples and small groups looking for a secluded weekend away. There is a two-night minimum. A 4WD VEHICLE IS NEEDED JUST TO GET ONTO THE PROPERTY. THERE IS NOWHERE TO PARK VEHICLES THAT CAN NOT REACH THE SITES. Please take the track descriptions seriously. We're not embellishing just to discourage inexperienced 4WDers. These are NO JOKE. Gumtree Summit and The Gun Range are up a steep and rocky track that requires technical driving skills and a very capable vehicle. These sites are very difficult to access! In wet weather, you will need to spend a bit of time winching. You need to know what you are doing. When booking, ensure you read each site description thoroughly before requesting a booking. Fuzzy miniature galloway cattle freely roam the property here. If you are not camping at the Summit sites, where they don't tend to go, you may see us driving around in our Jeep, giving them lots of treats and cuddles. Other than that, our hope is that you don't see anyone but the local wildlife.

The Summit (High-Clearance 4WD)

100% (89)
Tent site · Sleeps 6
PLEASE READ THIS DESCRIPTION THOROUGHLY BEFORE MAKING A BOOKING REQUEST. We ask all campers to arrive before dark. The Summit is spectacular. This is where you come to get away from it all. Wind down the day with your own private, uninterrupted sunset view. Camp on a completely private and flat space at the highest point in the area, nestled within towering old gum trees. Enjoy the company of koalas, goannas, wallabies, and (of course) the occasional snake. This is Australia, after all! And when it's time for breakfast, you are likely to wake up above the clouds. There is a long-drop toilet as well as non-potable water available via a gravity-fed IBC. This water is extremely difficult to replenish due to the remote nature of the site and we ask that it not be used for showers, please. Please read this track description thoroughly and take it seriously. This site is for experienced 4wders, This is mountain driving, not for stock vehicles! All vehicles must be capable enough to reach the site, you cannot leave cars at the bottom as the cattle will most likely use them as scratching posts and remove your rear views. We get a lot of people who show up and are unable to reach the site and then request a refund after they've booked the site out for the entire weekend. Please know that if you cannot make it and the Chillin' Creek site is booked, we can't offer a refund, as it is then too late for anyone else to book the site. We make every effort to ensure that this won't happen, and so carefully vet our campers at the time of booking. Therefore, the following questions must be answered at the time of booking request. If you don't answer the questions we'll have to deny your booking. Send your answers with your booking request. 1. Vehicle Make and Model 2. Lift Height 3. tyres (size and type) Min 33" 4. Winch? 5. 4WD Experience. And remember, the beach doesn't count as 4WD experience. (Just whether or not you have proper four-wheel drive experience aside from beach driving) 6. Lastly, and I can't believe we have to ask this one but, how cold should your fire be when you leave it? This is a very serious question! The track to this site is steep and rocky in parts and muddy in other parts and requires consideration of wheel placement. Some of the soil is clay and will quickly fill All-Terrains in wet weather. In the dry, you'll make it up on ATs but in the wet, you will require a good set of mud tyres and will probably have to spend some time winching if you have no diff lockers. One locker is very helpful. You will be required to air down to at least 25 PSI before you start your climb. There are absolutely NO TRAILERS PERMITTED at any time and there are no exceptions to this rule. WE HAVE THREE RULES 1. PUT OUT YOUR FIRES COMPLETELY. This means your fire is cold to the touch before you leave. Yes, unfortunately, we have to ask. It's not common sense to everyone. 2. LEAVE NO TRACE. This includes the fire pits! Please do not put anything in your fire that doesn't burn. This includes cigarette butts. 3. Never approach the cattle with off-leash dogs. Sensible/well-trained dogs are included. Our cattle are trained and marketed as pet/therapy animals and any negative interaction with a dog can be incredibly damaging to their training.

Gun Range (High-Clearance 4WD)

97% (39)
Tent site · Sleeps 6
PLEASE READ THIS DESCRIPTION THOROUGHLY BEFORE MAKING A BOOKING REQUEST. We ask all campers to arrive together and before dark. Surrounded by towering gumtrees with forest on three sides and a valley view to the west, the Gun Range site will help you meet your forest fix while being protected from the elements. This is a completely private, basic, no-amenities site. Just a big firepit, you, and your mates! Bring the too!As with all of our sites, the gun range is completely secluded. As long as you LEAVE NO TRACE (and we really mean that) and make sure your fire is cold to touch, you can be as loud and obnoxious as you want here.

Creek Camp (AWD/Trailer)

94% (54)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 4 · Vehicles under 6 m
A private and secluded rainforest nook near a shallow creek with a fire pit, best suited for campers with a rooftop camp set-up or small 4WD camper trailer. There is a beautiful rainforest shower (cold water only) that can be turned on at your request. It is fed by a rainwater tank and we request that you utilize this water sparingly and notify us when you are leaving so we can ensure the tap is off. Small shallow rock pools are accessible via a creek walk. These are swimmable in wet seasons and shallow pools in the dry seasons. This site is the most accessible on the property and is suitable for no greater than 2T loaded 4WD trailers towed by a good 4WD. There is a shallow creek crossing but you can get across in an AWD during the dry season. We ask that campers arrive before dark as the initial access area is not owned by us and to respect our neighbours by not allowing people to drive around on their property after dark. People wishing to stay here should be respectful and quiet as neighbours are about 300m away through the bushes. If you wish to be loud, the other two sites on the property are the place to do it. You can be as loud as you want up there. You are most likely to meet our friendly miniature galloways at this site. You may also see us when we come to check on them, though we will try to disturb you as little as possible. Our cattle are cute but they are also our livelihood and their safety is our top priority. Please ensure this site is kept clean so none of them ingest or step on something dangerous. This includes hot coals, rubbish bags, glass, screws etc. Please keep in mind that they are raised as pets and therapy animals so ANY negative encounter with a person or dog (I.e. barking etc.) can affect their temperament significantly. PLEASE KEEP ALL DOGS LEASHED IN THIS AREA WHEN COWS ARE AROUND AND REMOVE THE DOG IF IT IS ANTAGONIZING THE COWS. WE HAVE THREE RULES 1. PUT OUT YOUR FIRES COMPLETELY. This means your fire is cold to the touch before you leave. Yes, unfortunately, we have to ask. It's not common sense to everyone. 2. LEAVE NO TRACE. This includes the fire pits! Please do not put anything in your fire that doesn't burn. This includes cigarette butts. 3. Never approach the cattle with off-leash dogs. Sensible/well-trained dogs are included.
