Go camping at these NEW caravan parks and sites!

Whilst we’ve been scouring the coast and country – our team have been working hard adding new sites to our free Camps Australia Wide App! One of the new sites we came across is a budget pet-friendly camp, Buchan Rec Ground, Victoria. As the caves are still closed, the community REALLY needs visitors to come and support local businesses. Anyway, we checked over 50 camps in one morning alone! And hundreds more in our 5 week trip – so keep posted with this newsletter (like the sites below) and the Camps Australia Wide App feed for updates. PET FRIENDLY RACEWAY

We had a ‘Buchan’ good time!

Buchan Recreation Reserve Update March 19: We’ve just been advised that the Buchan Caves and Reserve will reopen on March 26th in time for Easter. Pronounced ‘Bucken’ – Buchan in East Gippsland Victoria needs travellers! Please visit and support the community and businesses until the Buchan Caves and campground reopen after the tragic flash floods last December. Two tourists heartbreakingly lost their lives in the flash floods on Boxing Day. However, the community is still reeling – we are told businesses are closing without the regular visitor numbers. When we visited, locals were not sure if Buchan Caves was

Winton Motor Raceway, Victoria – New pet friendly camp with a difference

Great news, the Winton Motor Raceway has opened for camping! This motor racing track had its first race in 1961 and is one of Australia’s longest-standing permanent motorsport circuits. On-site camping is now available 24/7 with easy access to motorsport and non-motorsport times. All sites are unpowered but it’s only $15 per van, vehicle or tent. You’ll have the bonus of a pet friendly site with 24 hour security! So you’re free to enjoy Winton and surrounds. Located at the rear of the back straight, the camping area features toilet and shower facilities (with bore water). It is well lit

10 camps that don’t cost you a cent!

Boy, have we seen some awesome free camps lately! Although we’ve based ourselves at Dinner Plain- we’ve had epic drives through the Victorian High Country. (You can check out the chalet here, there is room to park up a van out the front. But don’t take one up in winter!) One thing up here, free camps are plentiful. Buckety Plain (pictured), Raspberry Hill and Langfords West are a winning free camp trifecta in the Alpine National Park – east of Falls Creek. That is, if you love the Aussie bush, hiking and escaping the heat. PRETTY PRITCHARDS CAMPGROUND This beautiful

Big Lap part 5 – what we forgot to tell you…

Like our swim in the Snowy River at McKillops Bridge! Meanwhile, I had promised to tell you about our horror happening at Elephant Cove, latest apps and share info on the states we didn’t visit on our first ever lap. Winner Announcement Congratulations to Bev B. from Hervey Bay, QLD who won our $20,000 Kimberley Holiday Giveaway! Thanks to everyone who entered.

Swim into the last month of summer with these camps

We’re just back from Wee Waa in western NSW and we didn’t think we’d be dipping in a hot bore bath! Although temps were soaring for the weekend, we dutifully (haha) tested out Pilliga Bore Baths – now open for swimming and camping! Heatley decided it was nowhere near as hot as the Lightning Ridge spa, so it was the first hot mineral springs he enjoyed! Are they your ‘cup of tea’? I love them all, the hotter – the better. But it was great to cool down with their shower after. Council wanted us to mention, the nearest dump

Junction reef new FREE CAMP Burnt Yards Blayney Region Good news and new camps for 2024. There is a lot of talk about free camps and pub stays disappearing.

New: Mount Taylor Forest Camp, Gippsland, Victoria

Mount Taylor Forest Camp is located in Gippsland, Victoria. Caron Horton from Facebook Group ‘Tripping with Caz and Pete’ said we must add it to the CAMPS guide and App! Caz said, “The drive here from Bairnsdale was glorious, with some very picturesque scenery. I was a little bit concerned as we got closer to the camp as there was lots of smoke in the air, but at the moment it is just a controlled burn, albeit a bit close for my liking.” “The camp is lovely – part of it is day use as there are a multitude
