Pet friendly camp near a waterfall at Woods Reserve, Australian Capital Territory

We love camps near waterfalls! On a recent winter visit to the Australian Capital Territory, I was able to scope out some campsites. From Woods Reserve, you can walk or drive upstream to the magnificent Gibraltar Falls. It’s only 30 or so km from Canberra. It is named after the first Europeans to settle in the area. The camp is near Namadgi National Park – with toilets, showers, picnic tables, shade, wood BBQs and a 14 day limit. It is a pretty drive out here, not far from the Brindabellas.

Spring is time for camping

We really had spring sprung on us this year. In one day we travelled from Canberra, ACT to Whyrallah, near Lismore, NSW – and then the next we were in sunny QLD, back to Rainbow Beach. After last week in Perisher when it was snowing, we arrived back to sunny beach weather. What a difference in climate! We spoke to a few skiing campers, who said they were cosy in their van and caravan parks close to the mountain. One couple had been camped out all winter! We also saw how dry some of our countryside is! Please let
