Hipcamp staff
About 2.5 hours’ drive south of St George and over the border in NSW, Lightning Ridge is an opal-mining town that attracts many prospectors who fossick for the gems, especially rare black opals. There are a few caravan parks around Lightning Ridge with powered and unpowered sites, swimming pools, and self-contained cabins. The Artesian Bore Baths here are sourced from the mountains.
