Nomadic camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Escape to the heart of the Great Southern with off-grid camping in beautiful Frankland River — where wide open skies, rolling vineyards, towering forests and peaceful river landscapes create the perfect nature retreat. Whether you’re chasing a quiet weekend under the stars, a self-sufficient camping adventure, or a base to explore the South Coast, Frankland River offers the ideal balance of seclusion and accessibility. Stay surrounded by pristine bushland and reconnect with nature at places like Lake Poorrarecup campsite or unwind among vineyards and river country at Frankland River Retreat. With minimal light pollution, the region is perfect for stargazing, campfires, birdwatching and soaking in spectacular sunsets. Frankland River is also one of Western Australia’s hidden wine gems, home to acclaimed cool-climate wineries including Alkoomi, Ferngrove and Frankland Estate. Spend your days enjoying cellar doors, scenic drives and fresh country air before returning to your peaceful off-grid campsite beneath the Milky Way. Best of all, you’ll have the Great Southern’s most iconic attractions within easy driving distance you can explore: • The Gap — dramatic ocean cliffs and crashing Southern Ocean waves • Natural Bridge — a spectacular granite rock formation carved by the sea • Greens Pool — calm turquoise waters and white sandy beaches • Elephant Rocks — giant granite boulders rising from crystal-clear water • Bluff Knoll — one of WA’s most famous hikes with breathtaking summit views • Mount Frankland National Park — towering karri forest, ancient landscapes and panoramic lookouts • Valley of the Giants Tree Top Walk — walk among ancient tingle forests high above the canopy With Albany and Denmark close by, you can easily combine your off-grid escape with coastal adventures, local cafés, breweries, art galleries, hiking trails and some of Australia’s most stunning beaches. Visitors consistently describe the Albany–Denmark region as one of WA’s most beautiful destinations, known for its relaxed atmosphere, forests, rugged coastline and unforgettable scenery.Site 1 / The Slab: Wake up to peaceful water views and the sound of birds in the trees at this spacious concrete slab caravan site, perfectly positioned overlooking the dam.
