The best camping near Djukbinj National Park guide

Overview

About

Embark on an adventure through Djukbinj National Park's network of billabongs and floodplains. Witness the spectacle of magpie geese in flight, capture the serene beauty of the wetlands with your camera, and delve into the rich cultural tapestry with a scenic drive from Scotts Creek to Twin Billabong. While overnight stays are not on the agenda, the park's day-use areas promise a full day of exploration and discovery.

When to go

The best time to visit Djukbinj National Park is during the Dry Season, as access is limited between December and March due to heavy rainfall. Plan your visit outside these months to fully enjoy the park's offerings and avoid the wet season's restrictions.

  • Ensure you have a parks pass before visiting Djukbinj National Park.
  • Dispose of your trash responsibly or take it with you when you leave.
  • Adhere to park safety signs and stay on marked roads and tracks.
