5 underrated Aussie camping destinations we think you’ll love

Timber Creek, Northern Territory, an underrated spot
Timber Creek, Northern Territory

After experiencing bucket list standouts, we are shifting the spotlight onto some underrated Aussie greats.

Like Timber Creek in the Northern Territory. Awesome lookouts and the Travellers Rest is a terrific caravan park behind the pub, with free croc feeding sessions!

With a tiny population, Girgarre punches way above it’s weight! A freedom camp, sound trail, events and botanic gardens. We loved our stay!

Kumarina Roadhouse was a welcome overnighter for us – with bar, sunset from the verandah, budget camping and a mixed grill!

Have you heard of Lemon Tree Flat Campground, in northern New South Wales? Worth the drive out…  

Plus our most talked about video is not a camp but Heatley’s horrible Vegemite toast with eggs! People were suggesting cheese, avocado and more … tell us what you think?

Thank you from us! 

“This App is an absolute Godsend, best thing since sliced bread. We started travelling around Aus 4 months ago and this app has been brilliant, especially being able to access info off-line. Have highly recommended to anyone that didn’t have it as well. No other app measures up to this one.” Theresa Harris 

Thanks Theresa! This photo was snapped at our No. 5 underrated camping destination – a free camp, north of Marble Bar, WA – the hottest place in Australia! This is Coongan Pool – it is waterside, pet friendly and you can have a fire. However, it is seen as a “poor cousin” to the campsite over the road – the beautiful Doolena Gorge. We loved both, tell us what you think when you visit! Find it in the App.
