Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
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.The camping area is open and spacious, more than enough room for multiple bookings to enjoy peace and quiet. It is on a gentle slope, with some uneven ground in parts that will most likely require leveling. All campers need to be self-contained, so please bring your own camp toilet with you.

I enjoyed my stay. I was the only one there. This Hipcamp is for those campers who want to get away from it all in peace. It’s not a Hipcamp farmstay like some. There is little contact with the hosts and you are free to be amongst the birdsong. Kash was very friendly and helpful and left me alone to enjoy my own peace.

Kash’s place was fantastic, we used it as a base for Rocky Cape and Wynyard both which were in easy reach. Great spot under a tree , had a fire every night and had the whole place to ourselves for the weekend. Plenty of wallabies around and a creek on the property. Would certainly stay again if in the area. Thanks Kash👍

The campsite is peaceful and close to nature. We tent camped near the orchard and couldn't hear anything from the other family camping by the fence. The site is protected from the wind and offers loads of space for kids to play. We loved our time here and wish there were more places like this. Thanks Kashire.

Thank you Kashire for the relaxing break. A little difficult to find as the camp spot is before the address but the owners were super helpful and we would recommend!!

Great camp site. We had it all to ourselves and only a short drive to the spectacular Sisters Beach and Boat Harbour Beach. Camp site down the bottom was level under the trees. Great spot and great hosts!
