How many campsites does Camps Australia Wide cover?

We cover over 15,500 sites nationwide, including free and budget campsites, caravan parks and RV parks. Every site is individually checked by our team, so you get trusted, accurate information for planning your trip.

Does the Camps Australia Wide App work offline?

Yes. The app has offline functionality with download and sync features, so you can keep finding sites and navigating even where there's no internet. That makes it well suited to remote Australian touring.

Which book should I buy for free and budget camping?

CAMPS 13 is the one for free, low-cost and no-cost campsites. If you're after caravan parks, look at Caravan Parks 7, and for other types of camping there's CAMPSpendium 2.

Alongside our travel guides and GPS downloads, we stock Aussie made travel gear like the Awning Anchor Kit, Camping Wine Coasters, Beeswax Food Wraps and ShooFly Food Nets, plus shirts, caps, a cookbook and gift cards.

What some of our 1.4 million community members are saying

“But really impressed with the offline functionality”

We’ve been long time users of the Camps Aust books and POIs in our Hema GPS device. However, the quality and performance of the new app for us changes our day-to-day reliance to the Camps Aust app. I was really impressed with the overall responsiveness and user interface. But really impressed with the offline functionality, download and sync features. These work just awesome. Offline capability is a feature of Australian touring that gets minimised by other apps sadly. Well done team.

“CAMPSPendium is a great set of info”

Hi Heatley Thanks, we are very happy. Just into the world of caravanning. Spent 10 days in Northern NSW and it is a great set of info. Cheers

“So easy to organise your trip”

Thanks so much …I’m thrilled with the layout & the contents. I will do the App update thingie as well & we look forward to many years of safe & well guided travel, THANKS TO CAMPS PENDIUM.” THANKS EVON, we are so glad you love it!

“We never need to feel lost again”

Good evening Heatley, we are full time travelers and up until recently used a combination of Wiki camps and word of mouth but neither are always reliable with one reliant on internet and the other first hand knowledge, so today we purchased a copy of caravan parks 6 and camps Australia 12 so we never need to feel lost again. Cheers

“I love getting your emails and reading them”

Good morning to you all, As I am getting older, I do not travel as much as I used to. I still travel around Tasmania where I live. I love getting your little emails and reading them. Whilst in one of my local shops I have bought the latest copy of Camps12. I am enjoying looking at that. This is just a note to let you know that I do appreciate reading the emails that you sent me. Regards,

Vanda Stevenson

“Thank you, that is great customer service…”

…I am a happy user and have all the books since Camps 7, along with the last few years of the POI for Garmin GPS. I’m an advocate for CAW and always let other campers know what I use to locate and navigate Kind regards

“What a wealth of information you guys are…”

An unexpected encounter with Heatley and Michelle today as we were leaving Brewarrina (rain and vanners had churned up the grounds so we were getting out while we could). What a wealth of information you guys are… we made is safely to Alex Trevillion Park, Walgett, it is absolutely packed. Thanks again for all of your tips and recommendations.

Beverly Jayne

“Thank you for all the work you and your team puts in”

“Hi Michelle, I have really enjoyed doing weekend trips away, exploring my own area, checking out free camps that I didn’t know existed, so thank you Michelle and Heatley, for all the work you and your team puts in to the books and the app! I love them! I receive your newsletters, which are awesome, thank you.” Regards

Katrina Cragg

“Love all camp sites info”

“Easier to use. Now on my phone. Put on the dash, and enjoy the drive. Love all camp sites info, including free camping, approx fees, toilets, and the list goes on. Could not fault it. Sooo handy not to stop to read, and find the place from the maps. Can relax at night, and see what’s next out there. Thank you Happy As”
