The best time to visit Karumba is between September and November to avoid the biggest crowds. Peak season is from June to August, when travellers come to trade the cold down south for Karumba’s low humidity and little rainfall. With a limited number of caravan and camping sites, the best spots book up well in advance during these winter months. Visit between September and November to avoid the biggest crowds. During tropical storms between November and April, Karumba may be cut off by floodwaters. Check the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) website for advisories in advance of your trip.
