Camp and fish just a stonesthrow from one of Tasmania's most stunning natural landscapes, Cradle Mountain. Here you'll find nature at its best, just 10 minutes drive from the Cradle Mountain Visitors centre, the perfect base for discovering this magical area.
Our campsites are on scenic, levelled areas overlooking the large dam and bushland, with grassed areas ideal for tents and camper-vans, and a portaloo a short walk away. The block is a natural timber and grassland block, with devils, quolls and wombats also residing here. We have one powered site available, and multiple unpowered sites.
There is a lovely walking track around the dams periphery. Feed fish from the edge, spot platypus frolicking about, and keep your eye out for Peacocks wandering the property too. Whilst you are welcome to bring your dog with you, please ensure they don't harass the wildlife.
A keen fisher? Throw a line in at our other dam and catch your dinner! Nothing beats fresh fish, that you caught yourself, cooked on a campfire.

Rivers Edge
1 site · RV, Tent24 acres · Gunns Plains, TAS
Rivers Edge is 24 acres of forest on the banks of the Leven River in Gunns Plains, Tasmania. We are in our own little valley surrounded by tall forests. Preston Creek flows all year through our property and meets the large Leven River where your campsite is situated. Perfect for trout fishing, platypus watching, bird watching or catching the sun setting through the trees on the river bend. There are even the endangered black fresh water crayfish.
The site is large enough for up to 5-6 caravans for large bookings, and we only take one booking at a time, so its exclusively yours.
We are only 20km to the nearest town, Ulverstone which as everything you need.
The road is close by the campsite with easy access to find the property. No toilet facilities at the site. Sat TV is good and limited mobile reception. Telstra works best we've found.
River access over a rocky, uneven embankment as it's a natural, untouched environment, just how we and the native animals like it.
Campfires ONLY PERMITTED when fire restrictions aren't in place. You absolutely must make sure your campfire is fully extinguished before you leave.
Please check "My Trips" (in your profile) for directions once confirmed. Look for the 'Rivers Edge' sign on the entrance gate, then you know youve got the right site and not the neigbours property (which is along side mine on the river)
Well behaved dogs are welcome but must be kept with you at all times, no roaming dogs as the road is close by and we are a working hobby farm with animals.
We love the peace and serenity here so please no unruly behaviour or parties.

The best camping near Savage River National Park guide
Overview
About
Immerse yourself in the untamed beauty of Savage River National Park, a haven of temperate rainforest and a sanctuary for primitive flora and fauna. Venture into this remote landscape, where the absence of roads and facilities preserves its wild character. Although there are no campgrounds within the park, the surrounding reserves offer a glimpse into the unique ecosystems of this pristine wilderness.
When to go
The best time to visit Savage River National Park is during the milder months of summer and autumn, when the weather is more conducive to exploring the rugged terrain. Winter and spring can be challenging due to harsh conditions, making access difficult and potentially hazardous.
Know before you go
- Ensure you have a valid parks pass before entering the national park.
- Prepare for a true wilderness experience; there are no visitor facilities within the park.
- Check for any alerts or safety information prior to your visit, including bushfire and biosecurity warnings.
- Respect the Aboriginal heritage of the area and all cultural sites.
- Access to the park is limited; consider a 4WD vehicle for nearby reserves and drive cautiously to protect native wildlife.
