Anduramba Bush Camping is situated on a 320 acre property south of Blackbutt. The campsite is on top of a hill with 360 degree views. It's in a remote location with limited facilities, so it's not for everyone. Most people who stay usually fall into one of 2 categories - - 4WD'ers or adventure bike riders who would rather camp overnight in the bush instead of at a caravan park or pub - People who just want a weekend away in the bush with some mates, chilling round a fire with a few drinks If either of those sound like you, I think you'll love it here! There's 2 options to choose from - you can book the campsite only, or the campsite including the cabin. Property features - - Great views - Dogs welcome (just don't let them wander) - Portaloo (flushing) - Shower hut (uses shower bags) - Water available for washing, BYO drinking water - Firewood available - Good phone reception (Telstra) - 2WD accessible via Esk or Crow's Nest, 4WD recommended from Blackbutt - I only accept one group at a time, so you don't need to share with other groups The cabin has 12V lighting and a bunk bed with mattresses (double bottom, single top), you'll need to bring your own bedding. A few other notes - - be aware you'll have to drive on gravel roads for quite a distance. 2WD vehicles can get here, but a 4WD is preferable. The road is rough in a few places - This is not a 4WD park or a ride park. Vehicles are to be used only on the track to the campsite. - Bring all your usual camping equipment, and if you want to use the shower room please bring a shower bag with you Any questions, just send us a message. Hope to see you soon!

Weekend Trip to Bushland Waters
Bev and Ian were perfect hosts. They have thought of absolutely everything - right down to the hamper of luxuries and great quality bath products. Everything is provided - just bring food and drinks. For those who want to camp with luxury this is fantastic. Baths under the stars are a highlight and the tent is superb. Ian's lanscaping and waterfalls are fantastic and Bev's touches are apparent throughout. Well worth the money for the solitude. five stars.

Such a lovely peaceful place to stay for a couple of nights. Loved the outdoor bath to cool down in with a cold beer in the afternoon! The creek was a bit high and muddy due to the rain when we first got there so didn’t swim but loved how the hosts had set up chairs and swing seats for those hot summer days of swimming.

Booked a one night stay here for my girlfriend and I’s 1 year anniversary. I got to say it was absolutely perfect. The owner Bev was incredibly kind, I had contacted her prior to the stay to set up an anniversary surprise and she nailed it. Had the most beautiful flowers on the bed along with rose petals set up in a heart, chocolates, face masks, candles for the baths, and that’s not even half of it. Not to mention the campsite was beautiful had plenty privacy, would 1000% recommend to stay here and we will definitely be returning again.

Me and my partner stayed here and we have to say it was the most beautiful & tranquil stay we have had so far in Australia. Bev & Ian were so lovely, helpful and attentive. The photos really do not do it justice. From the little welcome hamper, to the outside bathtubs looking at the stary sky it was absolutely incredible. Bev & Ian provided everything you could need to make this truly the most beautiful little stay. We would definitely recommend booking & will hopefully return!!

I absolutely loved the Valley Views campsite and it was such a peaceful location. Had the cows and new calves visit me one morning which was extra special. Laura and Neil were very friendly and took me up to the campsite. Unfortunately there were a lot of thunderstorms around each night so left a day earlier than anticipated but intend on coming back when the weather has settled.

Mandy and Alan were very welcoming. They greeted us on arrival, gave us the lay of the land and the rundown on the amenities. About 4ish, Alan came dosn and rounded up the 4 kids and whisked them off into the next yard to feed the alpacas. Unfortunately we got rained out and couldn't stay the planned two nights, but the kids had a ball mucking about in the rain and chasing the frogs about. The amenities are fantastic - best campground shower I've ever had. The kitchen area is well-configured and we found anything we hsd forgotten to pack was probably in there. I'm definitely keen to stay again, hopefully during some cooler and more predictable weather.

Well, where do I start! The effort that was put into creating this absolute, little slice of paradise became evident on arrival. The pictures are amazing and they don't do it justice! Hats of to the both of you for time you have taken and the vision required to establish such a space. I highly highly recommend staying even if it's just for the night, you won't forget the experience and you definitely won't regret it!

WE LOVED IT HERE! We just wanted to get away for the night, turn the phones off, have a fire and gaze at the stars. It was the perfect place. The kids explored the creek and went for a swim. They begged us to bring them back. We really enjoyed the communal area and the donkey. The kids jumped at showing their camping skills, getting the donkey (hot water system) ready for the showers. We will be back for a much longer stay.

Our group really enjoyed our stay at Hilltop Farm. Eight members of our Brisbane ham radio club were able to see 360 views of the horizon, put up our antennas and make contact with the world! The amenities were as described, and we had visits by friendly horses and a very polite dog. We agreed that this will become an annual event and we will definitely be back next year!

The best camping in Bunya Mountains National Park, QLD guide

Overview

About

Rainforest-clad peaks shelter the largest stand of ancient bunya pines in the world. Discover cool mountains, rainforests and waterfalls, unique range-top grasslands, panoramic views, colourful birdlife and enthralling stories of times long ago.

Ancient bunya pines give this cool mountain rainforest park its name. Queensland’s Aboriginal people have gathered here for centuries, and its popularity with campers is well deserved. Waterfalls, panoramic views, and rich birdlife are all here, just three hours’ drive northwest of Brisbane on narrow, winding mountain roads. The nearest towns are Kingaroy and Dalby, while Dandabah offers a general store, café, and picnic areas. There are three national park camping grounds, and more than 35 kilometres of walking tracks open the forests to hikers and campers.

Notable campgrounds

  • Best for families: Dandabah has good amenities and space for kids to play.
  • Best for sunrise views: Burton’s Well offers views to the northeast.
  • Best for birdwatchers: Bring binoculars to Westcott Camping Area to spot fairy-wrens and other birds.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  1. All campsites must be booked in advance, either online or by phone.
  2. Book at least three months in advance if you can, or up to 12 months in advance for Australian school holiday times.

When to go

The annual Bunya Dreaming Festival, run by local Aboriginal people, is held on January 26. Mountain temperatures are generally 7-10 degrees (Celsius) cooler than those on the coast, with winters dropping to freezing point. Always pack warm clothing, even in summer. In winter, expect mist, heavy fog, and rain. Between December and March, giant bunya nuts—weighing up to 10 kilograms—can fall from the Bunya pines, so avoid standing or parking under them during this time.

Know before you go

  • Camping permits are required in Bunya Mountains National Park. Apply online or by phone.
  • Apply insect repellent liberally to deter ticks, which can cause serious illness.
  • Mobile phone reception is poor in most camping areas.
  • All campgrounds have wheelchair-accessible toilets.
  • Boil or treat all water before drinking.

Great place for walks, but watch out for the mighty Gimpy-Gimpy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dendrocnide_moroides, a very unpleasant experience for get in contact with. It was a learning experience for the whole family, unfortunately they are everywhere, as well on the designated footpath. My worries would be with small children, but saw adults getting in contact , like me and other that were not aware. The Forrest themselves are beautiful.
