Camps Australia Wide - Camping App Walgett

App

“Simple”, “brilliant” and “easiest” camping App

Keith Lucht from Ipswich, Queensland called us at CAMPS AUSTRALIA WIDE to tell us about our App. He was excited. This camping App is so, so much simpler because you can just scroll through and that’s where we are – and it all comes up! You look at your town, we go to Walgett, and it is all there. I can touch the map and spread it to where I want to go. I’ve got every single App for camping in Australia and yours is easiest! Miles easier! I’ve had more apps than you can poke a stick at. I’ve

“Top no. 1 info tool everybody needs”

We come across travellers and their stories every day. When Peter Warden (pictured on the left of this image with his friends) sent us this email about the camps app, we just had to share. I downloaded alternative apps…… and then I renewed my camps membership and paid the 10 bucks …. Why? You do a bloody good job with your app and the POI and the book. I used you for 12-13 years and think you are important in the past, and now, and for the caravan community. Others jumped on your success, but you are the right guys

Darwin here I come!

Reader’s update by Kaz Nagle I have mine. Live every day by it. This determines my address every afternoon. I even draw in it. Perth to Melbourne solo – serious about taking the left turn at Port Augusta due to current situation in Melbourne. Have to be in Melbourne for son’s wedding in October. I take so many detours thanks to your publication just for a look or to stay the night a few hundred metres (yes metres) down the road. My vista changes every morning I wake up and every evening when I go to bed. Need to service the

Standown Park, Queensland

Between Gympie and the Cooloola Coast, is a little oasis called Standown Park, QLD site 212 in Camps 11, 256 in Caravan Parks 5 or find it on the Camps Australia Wide App. As we turned into their road, kangaroos were there to welcome us. The pet friendly caravan park has powered sites and budget unpowered out of the way sites as there are 18 acres beside forestry, set amongst gardens, wide open spaces and memorial walls. Standown is a military term for ‘rest/relax’ and that is exactly what you do here. Independently owned, Pam and Rod Elkington say the property was originally a ginger, pumpkin and watermelon farm

The NEW Camps Australia Wide Site Symbols

It has come in handy – we’ve booked holidays in Coffs Harbour, Sunshine Coast and Surfers. It’s good because of the symbols – like a playground for the kids, also petrol stations and shopping centres. It’s really good for me, I find it easy and I don’t know how to use maps! The kids are 6 and 10, they look at the pictures and are learning from the symbols and know if it has a playground or toilet. We save caravan parks in favourites and eliminate them until we find the site we like. You can tell if they have toilets,

Our Stay at Leichhardt Lagoon

Words by Desmond Fittock. Photography by Beverley Fittock We arrived at Leichhardt Lagoon caravan and camping park on 31st July 2015, 170 years almost to the day since Ludwig Leichhardt camped by the Norman River on 19th July 1845. Leichhardt was one of Australia’s early explorers at the time of his camp there he was on his 1844/45 expedition from Morton Bay to Port Essington, NE of Darwin. I have read that Leichhardt camped at latitude 17 degrees 49 minutes, Leichhardt Lagoon is at latitude 17 degrees 51 minutes. This may be why he is reported to have rejoiced at
