Primitive camping

Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.

Approximately 45 minutes from Orange, 4 hours from Sydney. The region between Molong and Parkes offers scenic views, bush walking, bush camping, picnic areas, mountain biking trails, and 4WD touring. To the northwest lies Goobang National Park that includes Caloma lookout, one of the high points in the Wanda Wandong sector of Goobang National Park. The area is a bird watchers' paradise - you can often spot birds of prey, such as wedge-tailed eagles, brown goshawks and brown falcons, soaring across the sky. Black cypress pines, grevilleas, lomandras and heath feature commonly on the landscape. There are many tall grass trees in this area too, some of which are believed to be hundreds of years old. This is a large property that is taking a break from sheep farming. Covered in gum trees and pines and lots of open space. The property has a creek with all year round water holes and dams. You can do almost anything you want. Hiking, fishing, swimming, camping and living the dream. There's emus (bush chooks), kangaroos (hopping dogs), platypus and no drop bears, meaning you can sit back, relax and go back to the way it was. Self sufficient campers only, leave no trace. You must bring your own camping toilet and shower. If booking under the Group listing, you will need to arrange you own portaloos, which I am happy to manage delivery/pick up of with the local hire company. It's 15 minutes to the pub in town if you're up for a coldie or a meal. Our farm is a work in progress.

Could be better

Was easy to find but not much space, a lot of it was over grown and inaccessible even in a 4WD. We could only really find one okay spot with a fire pit and that’s it. Probably don’t recommend for $10.

Pulled up in a overgrown rocky paddock, creek was nowhere to be seen. Very disappointing spot. Highly would not recommend

Not recommended

Definitely not how the photos made out. A dirt track to camp beside only. Certainly not suitable for a caravan.

It was on the side of a public road, that had a Coles truck drive by at one point. I would expect this kind of place to be free, not $25

Currently very wet.

Unfortunately site was very very wet, and this wasn't specified in a discretion. In a current condition it is not suitable for camping. We came late, and I didn't properly check site condition. So when I drove through the site I got stuck in mud. The Host was away and wasn't able to help. So we were stuck and couldn't leave. Thanks to some locals, who passed us, were ready to help but only in the morning, as it was already dark. If it was dry, it will be really good camping spot, quite, a lot of birds in the morning and amazing sky full of stars.
