Primitive camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Pioneer Gully Bushland is located in Buninyong, just 15 minutes from Ballarat. The area is rich in history from the gold fossicking days. Our campsites are in the bush area of our property and offer plenty of space, privacy and shade. There is a dam on the property where you are welcome to try your hand at fishing. There is an old mine on the property which is fenced off but it is something we are happy to show you. Please speak to us before going anywhere near the mine. There are plenty of walks and hikes to enjoy on the property and in the surrounding area including Mount Buninyong which is right next to us. The region is really popular for bike riders and it is a great way to see the surrounding areas. Sovereign Hill is less than 15 minutes away and is a great day out for the whole family. Have a go at panning for gold, enjoy one of the many shows and presentations and learn all about the history of the regions. Enjoy a campfire in the fire pit provided for you and enjoy some brilliant star gazing in the evenings. Pets are welcome. Campers must be self sufficient with their own toilet and take all waste with them on departure.

Buninyong beauty 😍
We had a great time on Renae’s land, such gorgeous surroundings and we had no trouble looking for wildlife, kookaburras were everywhere! The site itself was quite slanted, but we made it work and were comfortable the whole time. Plenty of firewood around and it felt super private, would love to come back sometime!

Peaceful bushland property
I enjoyed my stay at Renae's peaceful property surrounded by lovely bushland, birds, and a dam. Buninyong town centre, offering access to petrol, supermarket, takeaway, etc., is a quick 2km drive away. Highly recommended for camping.

Well worth a stay.
What a peaceful spot to stay. Nestled amongst the trees looking down a gully. Bird life amazing and had a visit from a cute fluffy wallaby. The smell of the bush was amazing. Level cleared pad to set up on and plenty of firewood around. Some road noise from locals driving past, but very minimal. Our set up was probably a bit too big for the area. Not much room to turn around, this was my fault. Booking cleared stated recommend length and I ignored. We were 18ft caravan. Got out ok however had to reverse down a slope a bit, stressful moment. If space was larger to accommodate our set up I would definitely return.

We loved our stay at Renae's site. There was plenty of room, it was clean, and you had uninterrupted views. While close to the road it felt very private and we loved the fire pit and exploring the property.
