If you LOVE LOVE LOVE camping, do we have some bucket list destinations for you!

Lake MacKenzie, K’gari Fraser Island, Queensland Image by Kag What’s not to love about camping? ALL of these iconic locations are so beautiful you could ‘pop the question’ or enjoy a Valentine’s squeeze. In fact, one of our reader’s did propose to his wife at Boolimba Bluff – and our daughter witnessed a proposal near Pemberton, WA. The Bicentennial Tree climb is so scary, he couldn’t persuade his intended to climb all the way up. So he went down on one knee only a platform or so up. The highlight of our girl’s day! As well as Carnarvon Gorge, Queensland, we

And, you can make the most of the last month of summer – be it waterfalls, swimming holes, rivers, creeks, dams and beaches! (Look for the symbol in our App and guides.)

Camp at these spectacular island destinations

Just back from North Stradbroke Island and Townsville – we are summer refreshed from the Queensland sun. As for islands, we really rate Straddie. It was our first-ever trip. Travelling with mates, we simply booked at their chosen campground, pet friendly Flinders Beach. Anyway, we tell you all about it – including the best walk I’ve done this year. It was so breathtaking, I’m putting it on my top ten Aussie walk list.  Plus we share more island hopping to quokkas in WA, a city break and convict jail, an island beside an island and pet friendly van trip with
